Lubbock

(From March 2011) This hot spot near the university and medical districts offers quick service and heart-healthy food. From the Smart Mex menu, we like the Clucker taco, a whole-wheat tortilla stuffed with apple-sweetened chicken salad, and we love the decadent Mediterranean pizza overflowing with mozzarella, artichoke hearts, red onions, and tomato slices. The cold sandwiches pile on the turkey, roast beef, or dolphin-safe tuna, and they’ve even made the burger healthy with hearty buffalo, turkey, or veggie options. And don’t forget the yogurt bar, with fresh fruit and fat-free, guilt-free fudge!

(From March 2011) This little pizzeria has only one table, but even if you can’t grab a seat, the pies here definitely make a tasty alternative to ho-hum takeout. Try one of their two headliners: lasagne pizza—layers of fresh ground beef, mozzarella, and pasta—or the Mexican-style, with taco meat, refried beans, cheddar, lettuce, green onions, tomatoes, and olives. Hearty and scrumptious, either is perfect for a cold winter night. If pizza isn’t on your agenda, the full menu includes subs, gyros, and even ribs.
