Best setup

Order a single Taco al Carbon — fire-grilled chicken in a corn tortilla. Simple and light. Add salsa fresca for flavor without calories.

Why this is a strong fit

Steady default for a normal day

Best bet

This stays lighter and easier to back out of if fullness hits early.

Watch-out

The main watch-out is still pace. Even a good fit can feel like too much if you keep going after fullness shows up.

Backup move

Backup move: if this starts to feel heavier than expected, switch your next meal to a gentler protein option with fewer extras.
