Am I the only one at a complete loss by the bodybuilders that swear by Chipotle meals every day?  Personally, every time we go to Chipotle, I have to prepare myself for gaining at least two pounds, having a food hangover, and feeling instant regret.  Plus, all that sodium.  Woof. I lived next to Chipotle all next year and gained about ten pounds eating it every night.  In an effort to curb my craving for burrito bowls, I came up with a "diet" burrito bowl recipe.  Years later, I still use it.  As an added bonus, it's a great go-to for weekly meal prep.  Mostly because it is probably the most half-assed recipe of all time. The ingredients:rn1 Bag Tri-Color Quinoa 1 Can of Black Beans 1 Can of Black Olives 1 oz. Cilantro Leaves 2 Peppers, Red & Green 1 oz. Taco Bell Taco Seasoning 1 bag of Organic Valley Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese 1 Scoop of light sour cream and/or Guacamole Cook the quinoa according to the instructions on the backrnOnce it's done, drop it into a large container with the black beans and black olivesrnDice the peppers and chop cilantro leavesrnDrop peppers, cilantro leaves, and seasoning into bowlrnMix all aforementioned ingredientsrnWhen you're ready to eat, scoop out your portion and heat in the microwave for 90 secondsrnOnce it's hot, add sharp cheddar cheese and toppings of your choicernAnd now, you're officially a burrito expert.  And probably contributing to Chipotle's plummeting stock.  Enjoy!
