had to eat out last nite, chose Chipotle bowl - got only one scoop of brown rice looked to be about a half cup, grilled chicken, black beans, fresh salsa and lettuce - do you think that is an ok choice for dinner ?
Sounds like a good choice to me, might try it myself if the family wants to go there
When eating out just remember portion size. Usually what they give you in restaurants is way more than a portion.
From the Chipotle site here is what you ate
Cilantro-Lime Rice 3 oz. 130 calories
Chicken 4 oz. 190 calories
Black Beans 4 oz. 120 calories
Fresh Tomato Salsa 3.5 oz. 20calories
So looks to be about 460 calories. Definitely not horrible for fast food.

Was it delicious?
All I know about chipotle is what I learned from South Park...
The sodium is sky high!! I guess as an every once in awhile choice, it would be ok, but too often will probably set you back.

I get the Chicken Salad(no rice), fajita veggies, black beans(sometimes), salsa, pico, and add Guacamole. It is one of my few places I go in a pinch and alot better choice than other fast meal options. Like BDMom said the sodium can be high and so is the price for the amount of food, relatively.
