Chipotle Mexican Grill
Black Bean Burrito Bowl (brown rice, black beans, cheese, guacamole and green tomatillo salsa)
The fast casual Mexican chain, Chipotle Mexican Grill puts the emphasis on fresh and tasty but be aware of additional salt in the food. Once you start picking and choosing your
vegetarian combo, sodium numbers start to skyrocket. Fresh salsas are the biggest offenders with upwards of 400 to 500 milligrams
in just a few spoonfuls (ounces). One exception is the tart green tomatillo salsa which cuts sodium down to a respectable
230 milligrams. Choose it if you can. Not fond of rice? Swap it out for the fajita vegetables and calories drop to 435 and
sodium goes up to 1020 milligrams. Also, watch out for the pinto beans that are cooked in bacon and choose the black beans
instead.
