If you’re on the New Year’s resolution train and are looking to lose weight, then you may not have to ditch all your favorite fast food places.
Chipotle, in an effort to promote itself as a healthy choice, tweaked its menu to fit with 2019’s trendy diet plans. Beginning Wednesday, the Mexican food chain will begin offering “Lifestyle Bowls,” a new collection of meals that fit into paleo, ketogenic and Whole30 diets.
“These first-to-category, diet-driven menu offerings are helping those who have committed to living a healthier lifestyle by making it easy to order delicious bowls that only contain the real ingredients permitted by certain diet regimens,” the company said in a statement.
Chipotle’s new “Lifestyle Bowls” include:
• Whole30 Salad Bowl: Romaine lettuce, carnitas, fajita veggies, tomato salsa and guacamole
• Paleo Salad Bowl: Romaine lettuce, barbacoa, fajita veggies, green salsa and guacamole
• Keto Salad Bowl: Romaine lettuce, carnitas, red salsa, cheese and guacamole
• Double Protein Bowl: White rice, black beans, chicken (full portion), steak (full portion), red salsa, romaine lettuce and sour cream
“We are always looking for ways to make the Whole30 easier and more accessible, and travel has always been a pain point,” Whole30® co-founder Melissa Hartwig Urban said. “It’s not always easy to find compliant options on the road, so I was thrilled to work with Chipotle to create a tasty, satisfying salad bowl that meets our program guidelines.”
