I’m in love with Chipotle!
Can’t help myself. I was a big fan before going GF, and I’m a big fan still. Yesterday was so hectic, I ate terribly throughout the day - woke up late and had to eat during a morning conference call, so I had a Lara Bar. Then was running late for a doctor’s appointment, and silly me, thought I had enough time to make a grilled cheese sandwich. It took a while, and I had to eat it while I walked around the condo gathering the things I needed for the doc appt, but it was the best darn grilled cheese I’ve had in recent memory. I used the GF bread I baked days ago (froze slice pairs) and some terrific cheese from the farmer’s market, with sundried tomatoes and olives in it. Yum!
So in the evening, after the gym, I was feeling too tired to cook, and wanted veggies. Chipotle called out to me. A burrito bowl with black beans and tons of their corn and tomato salsas and lettuce was perfect. Ironic that it was “fast food,” but I felt like it was the healthiest meal I had all day. A pal is the manager at our local store, and he was telling me recently how the quality of their food is extremely high, and much of it organic, so I feel pretty good eating it.
Of course, later, ice cream. But who’s counting.

Chipolte does have great healthy food, but watch how they prepare your meal. Do they put on clean gloves? Some locations shred their cheese on site. Ask your friend if they do so in a manner to eliminate cross contamination with other gluten sources.
