Ultimate Keto Wendy’s Guide (Full List)

When I’m out and about and haven’t prepared a take away meal, I pull mine out Keto Wendy’s Guide and start looking for something tasty!

I may be biased because I worked for Wendy in high school, but I feel like there are some great menu items that won’t ruin your progression with keto.

Eating fast food isn’t ideal, but it sure does make maintaining a low-carb lifestyle a lot easier.

Overview of Wendy’s Keto menu

Ordering low carb at Wendy’s is largely similar to navigating the menu at McDonald’s.

Your options will likely be a no-bun or salad-free sandwich.

If you ask for “No bread, please”, your order will be delivered in a plastic container with a fork and knife. It’s such a convenient keto-friendly option to take on the go!

If you’d rather wrap your sandwich in salad wrap, you can request that too.

The other salad dressings contain way too many grams of carbohydrates and are not a good choice for a ketogenic diet.

beverages

If you are going to order the lemonade, be sure to indicate that you want the Minute Maid brand. This is sugar-free and very low in calories.

Wendy’s also makes fresh lemonade that is filled with sugar, so don’t confuse the two.

Is Wendy’s chilli suitable for a keto diet?

The chilli at Wendy’s isn’t particularly keto-friendly, but it can be a decent option depending on the amount of carbohydrates you can consume.

A small Wendy’s chilli is 240 calories and 14 grams of net carbohydrates per serving.

If you choose to have a cup of chili, add sour cream or grated cheese to make the cup even more filling.
