MESA, AZ - Fast food -- it's quick, cheap, and often packed with fat, but there are options out there that won't break the calorie bank.

ABC15 called in Valley health guru Chris Powell to reveal the healthiest and most affordable meals at the drive-through.

"It's rare to find this in a lot of fast food nowadays," Powell said with excitement.

Powell, the so-called Transformation Specialist from ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition", gives his top three fast food chains he claims are serving up good choices for your budget and your diet.

His first pick: Chick-fil-A .

"It's going to be one of my favorite items especially if you're on the go," explained Powell.

For just over $6.50, Powell said the best option at Chick-fil-A is the char-grilled chicken sandwich meal with a side salad and unsweetened tea.

"Three hundred and seventy calories in this entire meal which is fantastic," expressed Powell.

But remember to keep hidden calories off the plate.

"Whether you're ordering at a sit-down restaurant or a fast food restaurant always get your croutons, dressings and sauces on the side."
