Chipotle salad or bowl

Chipotle is the name of a well-known Mexican fast-food restaurant. Because it uses high-quality ingredients and puts a focus on animal welfare and sustainable agricultural methods, many people believe it to be healthier than other chains.

Chipotle also makes it very easy to create low-carb meals. A salad with grilled veggies, beef or chicken, and guacamole has 14 grams of total carbohydrates, 8 of which are fiber. About 30 grams of high-quality protein are also included in this meal. The gut hormones peptide YY (PYY) and cholecystokinin (CCK), which signal your brain when you're full and help in avoiding overeating, can be produced more readily if you consume a lot of protein and fiber. Even though vinaigrette is available, most servings of guacamole and salsa make salad dressing unnecessary.
