Chevy's Fresh Mex Steak Tostada Salad

1,560 calories, 100 g fat (38 g sat fat), 2,220 mg sodium

The scariest thing about this salad—a mix of steak, refried beans, romaine hearts, jack and cheddar cheeses, guacamole, sour cream, and tomatoes served inside a crispy tortilla shell—is that its stats don’t even include dressing. A serving of Chevy’s Creamy Ranch adds 370 more calories, while the chain’s Apple Chipotle Vinaigrette sets you back 380 calories.
