Highest-protein orders

Keto and low-carb

Order a salad or bowl with no rice and no beans. Choose chicken, steak, barbacoa or carnitas, then add fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa or tomatillo salsas, cheese, sour cream and guacamole. A chicken keto bowl with fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, cheese, sour cream and guacamole has about 675 calories and about 20 g of carbs. Skip the corn salsa and the vinaigrette, which have the most carbs.

Vegan and vegetarian

Chipotle’s sofritas, rice, beans, fajita veggies, salsas, guacamole, chips and tortillas are vegan. A sofritas bowl with brown rice, black beans, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa and guacamole has about 765 calories and 23 g of protein. For a vegetarian order, add cheese, sour cream or queso blanco; Chipotle’s cheese is made with vegetarian rennet.
