That’s right, Chipotle now has a Keto Bowl with Cilantro-Lime Cauliflower Rice, and it’s delicious. This is a great addition to the Lifestyle Bowls lineup. Another plus with the Cilantro-Lime Cauliflower rice – you can also customize your Keto Bowl to your heart’s content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here’s the nutritional content for the non-customized Keto Bowl:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only difference between carnitas and barbacoa is that carnitas are pork and barbacoa is beef. Create a keto bowl with one of these two the next time you eat keto at Chipotle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro-tip:<\/strong> Stay away from sofritas, which we don’t even accept as a keto diet choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\nChipotle Keto Salad Bowl<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Create Your Own Bowl<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t want the Chipotle Keto Salad Bowl, follow this basic recipe to make your own bowl or salad:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Order a salad or a bowl that isn’t filled with rice and beans. (0-1 g carbs net)<\/span><\/li>
- If desired, add fajita vegetables. (4 g carbs net)<\/li>
- Except for sofritas, you can use any protein (chicken, steak, carnitas, barbacoa). (0-1 g carbs net)<\/li>
- Cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and\/or queso are good fats to add. (1-3.5 g carbs net per topping)<\/li>
- Except for the roasted chile-corn salsa, serve with every salsa. (3\u20134 g carbs net)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
This combination can be used to create a number of tasty keto dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choose one item from each category to make a spicy, delicious keto meal with a maximum of 13.5 net grams of carbs. If we don’t have the fajita veggies, we’re just talking about 9.5 net grams of carbs! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be Aware of Hidden Carbs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t look at the nutritional data, you might think these foods are lower in carbs than they are. It doesn’t mean you can’t use them in your keto Chipotle meal, just bear in mind the carb count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sofritas have 6 grams of net carbs per serving.<\/strong> Sofritas (which is described as a low carb option on the website) has a slightly higher carb count because it is a soy-based plant protein substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt has a total carbohydrate content of 6 grams. It’s not outrageous, but it’s not as low in carbs as some of Chipotle’s other proteins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The roasted chile-corn salsa has 13 grams of net carbs.<\/strong>
This salsa is listed as a low-carb choice on Chipotle’s website, but with the word “corn” in the name, a keto eater should proceed with caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat to Avoid at Chipotle on Keto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you want to eat keto at Chipotle, you’ll need to know what to avoid:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Tortillas, or burritos as they’re more commonly known. This is also true of chips, which, due to their high carb content, are ineligible for a keto diet. Burritos are usually HIGH in calories and carbohydrates.<\/li>
- If you order a burrito, they will also inquire about rice and beans. At all times, stay away from the burrito.<\/li>
- Rice- Both white and brown rice are low-quality carbohydrates that should be avoided while following a ketogenic diet. If you order a salad bowl or a burrito bowl, specify that you do not want white rice and instead want romaine lettuce.<\/li>
- Beans, both pinto and black, fall into this category. Pinto beans (brown beans) have 21 grams of carbs per serving, while black beans have 22 grams. If you order a burrito bowl or a regular burrito, these extra carbs are something you can avoid.<\/li>
- Tortilla chips, soft or crispy tacos, and burritos, as well as white or brown Cilantro Lime rice, should all be avoided. You should also skip the pinto beans, black beans, and Chipotle honey vinaigrette.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/a>\n\n\n
