These Fast Food Restaurants Have Fish Sandwiches And Meals That Are Perfect For Friday Meals During Lent
Chicken sandwiches, you've met your match.
As we gear up for Easter, many people are about to be in the midst of Lent and will likely be abstaining from eating meat on Fridays. While meat in the traditional sense is not allowed, fish is okay, so many choose to eat fish-based dishes as an alternative. Many fast-food chains have taken note of this and released menu items using fish as the main course.
While Chick-fil-A has offered fish options during Lent at a small number of restaurants in the past, this year, the chain won't be offering any. However, there are a ton of other options to choose from. From the classic McDonald's Filet-O-Fish that's a permanent menu item to seasonal items like Popeyes' new fish sandwich, there are tons of ways to stay on track even when you only have time to go to the drive-thru. P.S. If you're a pescatarian all year, you'll want to take some notes, too!

Red Lobster is introducing Fish Fry Friday for the Lenten season, which includes a hand-battered cod served with fries and coleslaw for only $11.99 that is available for dine-in and to-go orders. For those who prefer to cook at home, the chain also offers a Fish Fry Mix that you can get a grocery stores nationwide.
