Default Fast food ideas?

Hi, single mom, two jobs, doing IP alternatives, no time to cook, here.
I've found a few fast food things that are good and low carb. If you have too, please share!

Carl's Jr. Grilled chicken club as a lettuce wrap no mayo (I sometimes leave the slice of cheese) the lettuce is always super crunchy and the chicken is very tasty. Easy to eat, even on the go!

Boston market, I'm addicted to their Mediterranean salad, dressing on the side (and I'm NOT even a salad person) It's big, I split it in two meals. It does have fetta but hey, it's only a little and I like it! I also add extra cucumber and onions.

In a pinch for breakfast, I do two sausage Mc Muffins hold the cheese (it's like $3.50 for two) I eat the egg whites and 1/2 - one sausage, my son gets the other sausage for his double decker Mc griddle and my dogs get the English muffins, everyone's happy!

Anyone else?

In a pinch I hit up Boston Market, there's one right by our house and they always have coupons I carry with me at all times. They offer Turkey Breast, Rotisserie Chicken (no skin) and Beef Brisket options as lean protein choices. And for sides a double serving of their steamed veggies! I still haven't hit them up on IP, but I have that in the back of my mind 'for emergencies'.

I did not pack a lunch today, I was not feeling well. So I used the "Molly" trick and went to Subway and had a grilled chicken breast, oil and vinegar and a salad with leuttice and spinach, cukes, green peppers, bell peppers, onions it was very good and 5 or 6 bucks. I asked for a cup and had ice water. I've used McDonalds or Burger King's salad too and just had no dressing.

I'm not sure what it's like in the US, but in Australia we have chicken wraps at McDonalds and I can just ask for the seared chicken on it's own for $3 which I think is great.
