Which is healthier and less fattening?

Question

A white tortilla with grilled chicken, green peppers, red peppers and onions.

OR

2 tablespoons of peanut butter and 1 tablespoon of jelly on 2 whole grain slices of bread

Answer 1

the PB and J...maybe the first one if it wasnt a white tortilla and it was maybe a whole grain one

Answer 2

The first.  

Answer 3

The first one, sounds yummy!

Answer 4

idk but i rather eat the 1st one

Answer 5

I would go with the first choice because peanut butter is high in fat and calories and also sugar. So if you go with the first choice I think the grilled chicken should be white meat so that way less fat  and the pepper and onions can give you vitamins but the onions can give you natural sugar  

Answer 6

do the tortilla on wheat.

its healtheir and a fresher than a PBJ.  Peanut buteer, such as Jiff - is wayyyyy processed...and so is the jelly.  Most Wheat breads are really glorified "White processed" breads.

Veggies, you can eat as much as you want.  A white torilla will have about 200 calories and the ck will have about 200 as well.  Thats an excellent meal

the Peanut butter alone will have about 400 caloires...not includnig the sugary jelly.

anyway - def the first one

Answer 7

I would say the top. More nutrients, and more likely to keep you full longer. If you could switch to a whole wheat or reduced fat tortilla it would be better. Sometimes tortillas have alot more fat than you think they do.

PBJ can contain a TON of sugar. Look for no sugar/salt added pbjs

Answer 8

A white tortilla with grilled chicken, green peppers, red peppers and onions.

Answer 9

Depends on the type of tortilla, among other things.

A regular 13" white tortilla is 330 calories - 8 g of fat.

3 ounces of skinless boneless chicken breast is 145 calories, 3.1 grams of fat

Peppers and onions - will count those as "free" as long as you don't use oil to cook them.

So: 475 calories, 11.1 grams of fat in the chicken tortilla

Peanut butter, 2 Tbs 188 calories, 16.2 grams of fat

Jelly, 1 TBs Smuckers Grape: 50 calories, 0 grams of fat

Whole Grain bread (as an estimate) 2 slices 260 calories, 2 grams of fat

So:498 calories,  18.2 grams of fat in the PB&J

Go with the chicken option - but try to find a tortilla that is high in fiber, low in fat/calories

Answer 10

white tortilla with grilled chicken, green and red peppers, and onions.

You are getting more of a variety and more vitamins and all that.

Answer 11

The first you get protein and cancer protection.

the second is just carbs protein and sugar

Answer 12

First one, Much nicer too =p

Answer 13

A white tortilla with grilled chicken, green peppers, red peppers and onions. Peanut butter is high in fat and calories and both the peanut butter and jelly are full of sugar.  

Answer 14

i'm thinking the chicken tortilla

Answer 15

Either is a good choice.

Answer 16

hmmm.... im going to go with option number 2

but really, i have no frickin clue

Answer 17

number 1

Answer 18

number 1 sounds healthier.

Answer 19

The tortilla. I would use lean chicken and a whole wheat tortilla. Sounds delicious! :P

Answer 20

One - the jelly probably has high frutrose corn syrup.

Answer 21

I would never turn down a  Peanut-butter & Jelly sandwich.

Answer 22

probably a white torrilla with grilled chicken, peppers and onions because it has some carbs, ur protein and the vegtables u need.

Answer 23

They're both actually not bad choices, but I would say that the first one is healthier. But if you can make that a non-white tortilla it would be even better and healthier. The second one is good, but you just don't get as much as in the first one, I think. The second one would have more fiber though.

Answer 24

A tortilla, less fat than the peanut butter.

Answer 25

The chicken tortilla is less fattening, but some say 1tbs. of peanut butter a day is not bad for you.  If your trying to lose weight go with the grilled chicken, on the other hand if you need something a little naughty the pbj is a good choice.

Answer 26

the peanut butter and jelly most likely

Answer 27

the first one is way healthier
