Yeah, I started ordering the bowls after I figured that out. (Of course, I still get cheese & guac, but hey - no tortilla! I'm all virtuous and shit!)
That is totally what I do! I figure it's like getting a diet coke at McDonald's -- I know it doesn't negate the rest, but at least I'm not wasting calories on stuff I don't care about. I care deeply about cheese and guac.
But I care about tortillas! Boo-urns.
I had a frozen burrito thing for lunch, it was meh, unsurprisingly.
I am having TJ's Paneer Tikka Masala, and I am really looking forward to it.
I lurve Chipotle's rice (lime+cilantro=FTW), so I order the Bol and refuse sour cream and cheese. Rice, black beans, chicken, all of the salsas (om nom nom nom), and a ton of lettuce. Pretty healthy, as these things go.
I always have to ask for extra lettuce, why they are so stingy with it I do not understand, it has to be the cheapest thing on the bar.
We eat Chipotle every Friday.
I have never eaten at any of those places- Taco Bell because the menu is too complicated and the others because I don't think we have them here.
Someone on Cuteoverload posted the "Rainbow Bridge" story in the comments section and now I am blubbering at work.
I've never even heard of Qdoba.
Taco Bell? I do love it. It's totally not Mexican food. It's its own thing, and decidedly not Mexican. But I do love it.
Chipotle? I like it well enough.
When I want Mexican food, I go to a local place. There are a ton of taquerias around here that have fantastic, cheap food.
The chipotle nutrition calculator is a necessity: [link]
Inspired by the lot of you, I'm marinating pork tenderloins in chipotle lime marinade that I'm going to sear and finish off in the oven. I'll make some rice to go along with.
And I a VERY VERY HUNGRY, dammit.
