Chipotle

One of my favorite "fast-food" places is Chipotle. When I first learned of this restaurant 7 years ago, I ordered a chicken burrito and could not finish it in one sitting let alone two. It was definitely large enough (if filled with enough ingredients) to last 3 meals for someone like me. After last year when I decided to become a flexitarian (someone who chooses to eat meat every once in awhile) I fell in love with their veggie bowls. I always get rice, black beans, peppers/onions, corn and tomato salsa, lettuce and guacamole. I take it to go and it serves me two meals. My 3-year old son enjoys eating the veggie bowls too.


Calories for my veggie bowl round out at about 530 and most times I order chips (570 cal.) for a total of 1100 calories. This is fair considering I do not eat this meal all in one sitting. 


What is your favorite item from the Chipotle menu?
