Thrifty Thursday: Guiltless Grill at Chili’s

March 12, 2009 by


I have talked about Bzz Agent before. Basically, it’s a word of mouth marketing network where you get to try products and share your experiences with others. This month, I got to try out the new Chili’s Guiltless Grill menu for free!

I seem to be on a constant quest to lose weight, so I had been aware of the Guiltless Grill menu at Chili’s for awhile, but in the past, it has been fairly limited (off the top of my head, I know they had a chicken sandwich and a chicken platter). The have expanded it and now they have some really great items to choose from including:

*Guiltless Carne Asada steak
*Guiltless Honey-Glazed or Grilled salmon
*Guiltless Buffalo or Grilled chicken sandwich
*Guiltless Chicken platter
*Guiltless Black Bean Burger
*Guiltless Cedar Plank Tilapia

All items on the Guiltless Grill menu are under 750 calories, 25 grams of fat and 8 grams of saturated fat. They area served with with steamed seasonal veggies and Parmesan cheese.

This time around, I went back and forth about what to order because I’d really like to try the Buffalo chicken sandwich, but I finally decided to try the steak. I was a little bit hesitant because I wondered how good a steak that was on a “guiltless” menu could really be. I was pleasantly surprised! The asada rub was very good and even though I get my meat “well done” it was not overcooked and was actually very tender. Even my husband who avoids anything “diet” related was surprised.

The Guiltless Grill is definitely worth checking out! You can view the menu (and nutritional information) here.

If you haven’t joined Bzz Agent yet, you should check that out, too! You can learn more about Bzz Agent in this post here.

The Crest, Colgate, and Glade coupons always seem to come in handy for Walgreens and CVS deals. Other than that, I don’t really see a lot of “hot” coupons this week, but maybe it’s just me. When I want multiple copies of the same coupon, I usually use The Coupon Clippers. Their turn around time is pretty quick and their prices are affordable. You can also check out eBay. For me, it’s cheaper to buy multiple copies of the one or two coupons that I need than it is to buy multiple papers.
