Crunching Numbers: Chipotle Burrito

Written by

Chipotle is a restaurant where you can load up on the calories fairly easily. Start off by ordering a burrito with a flour tortilla. Get it with pinto beans, cilantro lime rice, and carnitas. From there add every salsa available, sour cream, cheese, and guacamole. Your burrito will now give you the following:

  • 1260 calories
  • 55g of fat (20g saturated)
  • 3710mg of sodium

Now I will outline the type of meal you should avoid at Chipotle. Skip the flour tortilla (as it is 290 calories all by itself) and get a burrito bowl with black beans and chicken. Substitute fajita veggies for rice. Choose only one salsa, like the green tomatillo. Keep the guacamole but get rid of the cheese and sour cream. You now have the following:

  • 500 calories
  • 21g of fat (4g saturated)
  • 1210mg of sodium
