    Hmmm, I love Chipotle also, I get a salad bowl to go extra lettuce double chicken, extra veggies, no sour cream , no cheese, no beans or rice, I do get diced tomatoes and avocado.. everybody has their own way to do it, good meal but very high in sodium.

    I just had a burrito bowl about an hour ago! Except I don't like beans so much, so I got chicken instead. SO DELICIOUS!

    ^this

    Mine: burrito bowl, steak (usually, but sometimes pork), white rice, no beans, fajita veggies, mild (tomato), medium (green), cheese, sour cream, and sometimes guac. I eat it with a bag of chips. 1200-1350 calories of awesomeness.

    I wouldn't say "gross," but certainly fast-food -ish in terms of quality.

    I haven't been, but looking at the nutrition online definitely convinced me not to check. Even their chicken has a ridiculous amount of fat, they probably cook it in oil or something...

    Bowl with double meat (steak and barbacoa), brown rice (light serving), beans, pico, cheese and guac. Eat half and save the rest for leftovers. Crazy protein and good calories. :-)

    Jof....we're Chipotle twins. Although sometimes I get chicken instead of steak.

    Mmm...Chipotle....

    Nobody else does the tacos? 3 crispy tacos with steak, guacamole, fresh tomato salsa, and lettuce = 545 calories of crunchy, meaty, avocado-y goodness!

    For 545 calories? Heck, I might need to make a Chipotle menu rotation!

    1/2 portion rice (either one), 1/2 portion black beans, meat, tomato salsa, corn salsa, cheese.

    No sour cream, no guac.

    Comes out under 500 cal. and you still get to have the rice and the beans and the meat.

    I believe I figured it around 475 cal. (that's using the 1/2 rice, 1/2 black beans and steak as the meat)

    I do Chipotle often and do a burrito with the meat, but have them slim it down. So less meat, less rice and less beans. Gauc and no cheese. I like that and I think I figured it out to around 550 calories.

    All of their meats are cooked in oil (and yes, it's the expected "vegetable" oil) *except* the pork/carnitas.

    please don't report me.....i've never been to chipotle :frown:

    Then how did you get on my FL???


    (Oh wait...you aren't...

    ...and that is why.)


    :never been to chipotle indeed: pshaw

    No meat. Skip the meat. It adds calories. You're going to get a ton of protein from the beans. There's just no reason for it. No meat.

    NO MEAT??? :huh:

    To the girl who said salad dressings are evil, there are plenty out there that aren't. Bolthouse Farms' salsa ranch is 45 cals for 2T. I'd say that's pretty decent.

    Yes BF dressings are delicious. I was specifically calling out the one that they have at Chipotle - it's got a ridiculous number of calories/fat for a tiny dressing!

    They have dressing?? Ha! I never even noticed it. In my head I was thinking that was a make-at-home salad. Lack of sleep + no ADD meds = dumb brain. :smile:

    Sounds crazy to me. Skipping the MEAT is like saying no to ice cream...
