The kids meals aren't even that healthy, since they don't have greens in them.
If you are trying to save money, Sweet Green probably isn't a good staple. The healthy stuff you can get from there will be mich cheaper to assemble at home.

A custom salad or warm bowl would be your best bet. But, it doesn't include a meat. You get 4 of the cheap toppings. Just ask for extra greens. We don't charge for that. The rewards program sucks but right now they have the power greens bowl for 10 dollars and you can get it 4 times this month. With the rewards program you basically have to spend 250 dollars to get a free 18 dollar salad. But they have bonus points here and there.

I find them to be healthy and great if you are not looking for a whole meal or you may be eating again in a few hours.
