How to Hit Your Macros at Chipotle
High Protein — Low Calorie
Choose chicken or steak as your protein. Skip the tortilla and use a bowl base. Choose brown rice, black beans, fresh tomato salsa, and romaine lettuce. Avoid cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. This builds a high-protein meal in the 500 to 600 calorie range.
Low Carb — Keto Friendly
Skip rice and beans entirely. Use a salad base with supergreens. Choose any protein, add fajita veggies, cheese, sour cream, and tomatillo salsa. Guacamole adds healthy fats. This keeps carbs under 20 grams for a keto-compliant meal.
High Calorie — Bulking
Choose a burrito with white rice, pinto beans, double meat, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. This can reach 1,200 to 1,400 calories in a single meal — ideal for those in a caloric surplus.
