As the name states, this Chipotle burrito bowl has everything that you would find in a burrito bowl from Chipotle, but probably a LOT less sodium and saturated fat. I swapped out sour cream for plain Greek yogurt, used low sodium (or no-salt-added) black beans, and I season the chicken with spices like garlic powder, chili powder, and pepper — no salt!
Further Food Commentary:
A much healthier Superbowl appetizer option, this Chipotle burrito bowl will be an absolute crowd pleaser! Each serving contains 23g of protein and only 5g of fat! There are also 6g of fiber per serving so you are sure to be satiated and steer clear from some other, less healthy Superbowl appetizer options. Enjoy!
