It’s been a struggle lately in regards to fast-food, especially when your job is a block away from Chipotle. Mexican food has always been my fav, even though I knew I would regret it later. All that cheese, sour cream, salsa, beans, etc. taste so good, but is not GERD or colitis friendly. Knowing all this I decided to go to Chipotle anyway for lunch. As I was standing in line, trying to figure out what combination of ingredients will not make me suffer for the remainder of my work day, I started having bad thoughts. As I got closer to order I was thinking; I should leave . . . I’m gonna regret this. . . . this is going to be BAD!! And then I heard, “How can I help you” . . I responded, “Yes can I have a bowl” . . . while shaking my head. I could not deny the Chipotle, so I ordered a bowl with the below items:
- White rice
- A little bit of Black beans
- Chicken
- tomatoes
- A little bit of cheese
- Guacamole
Taste: Of course it was delicious!
Colitis friendly: Not really, If it was just rice and chicken that would have been great for my tummy. The tomatoes, black beans, and cheese are a no go, but I asked for less than the normal portion. As a result my stomach wasn’t bad. Did not experience any diarrhea or bloating, so I was happy. But even if I didn’t have any tummywoes, Chipotle can be a daily meal right? 🙂
