An Indulgence That's Worth Every Calorie...



Each week, I give myself a small but mighty window of opportunity to indulge in what we former fatties call "the cheat meal." My poison picked comes housed inside an aluminum container (if you're the to-go type) and is quite literally the closest thing to heaven on earth. Yes, I'm referencing the infamous "Burrito Bowl." At this point in my Chipotle chocked life, I would venture to consider myself a seasoned veteran of the ordering process - but for those of you who are virgins to this (and for that I feel sorry for you,) I will break it down step-by-step!

Step 1: Burrito, Salad Bowl or Burrito Bowl ?

Step 2: Would you like black or pinto beans?

Step 3: Would you like chicken, steak or barbacoa (strange meat I've never tried) ?

Step 4: Mild, medium or hot sauce?

Step 5: What types of toppings? (cheese, lettuce, corn, sour cream, guacamole, etc)

*** Warning: Guacamole is extra, but SO worth the difference in price ***

Step 6: PAY UP. (Word of advice, when asked for a drink choice - I always say a cup for "water" - the soda machine is self-serve (I'm going to hell, aren't I?)

By the way --> if you take my advice and indulge, you're welcome is all I have to say.
