Healthy Menu Items At Outback Steakhouse
I've loved Outback since I was a kid, and since there's one right by my house, I eat it about once a month. As you might know by now, if you've seen some of my other healthy restaurant guides, I'm always trying to find the best low calorie options on every menu.
So, of course, I had to make one for Outback! I put together a list with all of the lowest calorie healthiest menu items that you can order. I've also included tips on how to make the meal even lower in calories. From steaks to salmon and salad to soup, this list has something for every craving!
By the way, I ordered the list from the lowest calories to the highest using the Outback Steakhouse Nutrition Calculator, so if you're looking for any more additional nutritional info, you can check that out. Now let's get into the list!
1. Broccoli Soup
Nutrition Information for a bowl of soup:
- 320 Calories
- 23g Fat
- 21g Carbs

Outback Steakhouse has a wide selection of soups, but some of them pack in some serious calories. This broccoli soup is definitely one of the healthiest, with only 320 calories in one bowl and 160 in one cup. The creamy onion soup is another of my favorites and is only 420 calories per bowl and 220 per cup.
2. Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp
Nutrition Information for one order of shrimp:

Kicking off our list are some of the most delicious coconut shrimp that I have ever had. The shrimp ios beer-battered shrimp, rolled in coconut, and deep fried to golden brown perfection. It's so good that you don't even need the sauce it comes with, which is a good thing cause it'll add a bunch of calories to the meal.
3. Outback Center Cut Sirloin

Outback Steakhouse is renowned for its steaks, and my favorite is the center cut sirloin. You can get five ounces of steak for only 350 calories and a whopping 38g of protein. It's my go-to Outback dinner when I want a high protein meal, and I'll usually order it with a side of plain steamed broccoli.
4. Grilled Chicken on the Barbie
Nutrition Information for 5 oz. Chicken:

My absolute favorite order from the Outback Steakhouse lunch menu is the grilled chicken on the Barbie. I love the outer char on the juicy chicken, and it's delicious cut up and eaten in the house salad. I don't even use dressing since the chicken is so flavorful, so it's a great way to save some calories.
5. Aussie Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken
Nutrition Information for half a big bowl salad:
- 400 Calories

Speaking of salads, the cobb salad with grilled chicken is pretty incredible. It comes with fresh greens, tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, avocado, bacon, cheese, and grilled chicken. It's huge, too, so I usually only eat half of the salad, and then I'll have the other half for lunch the next day.
By the way, the nutritional value is with no dressing, and my pro-tip is to get the salad to-go and eat it at home with one of these low calorie salad dressings.

It comes with fresh mixed veggies and lettuce, red cabbage, crispy noodles, blue cheese, and incredible cinnamon spiced pecans. Trust me, even though it's a side salad, it's filling enough to eat as a meal!
