There's no need for "lunch hour" to be synonymous with "greasy fast food ingestion race" thanks to Taco Fresco. Chicago's cheap-eats Mexican chain offers heart-healthy items for the busy professional. Expect a menu of tacos, burritos, tostadas and quesadillas that are low in calories and fat but full of the flavor that makes the south-of-the-border eats so irresistible.
Think low-fat Mexican is an oxymoron? Taco Fresco puts a practical spin on the classic: None of the items are fried, non-fat sour cream is available, and all items come with or without low-fat cheese. After a meal here, your wallet will be equally robust. A grilled yellowfin tuna taco is only $2.75. The steak, chicken or lean beef burrito combo (with beans, rice, and a can of soda) will fill you up for just $5.95, and you'll be happy to know that that indulgent chicken burrito packs just 403 calories if you take the cheeseless route.
