Chipotle’s First-Ever High Protein Menu Is Here—Some Bowls Hit 80g
Chipotle is hopping on the growing protein trend with its first-ever dedicated High Protein Menu.
The company curated it with portion control in mind, whether you want lighter bites or loaded builds. It features six signature menu items, ranging from a 32-gram High Protein Cup with fresh grilled, hand-cut Adobo Chicken that can be swapped for steak to a High Protein-Low Calorie Salad with 36 grams of protein. Here’s a breakdown of each menu item:
- Double High Protein Bowl (81g protein, 11g fiber, 760 calories) – A high protein burrito bowl featuring double Adobo Chicken, light white rice, black beans, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, Monterey Jack cheese, and extra romaine lettuce.
- High Protein-High Fiber Bowl (46g protein, 14g fiber, 540 calories) – A GLP-1 friendly bowl featuring Adobo Chicken, light brown rice, black beans, fajita veggies, roasted chili-corn salsa, fresh tomato salsa, and romaine lettuce.
- High Protein-Low Calorie Salad (36g protein, 10g fiber, 470 calories) – A GLP-1 friendly salad featuring Adobo Chicken, Supergreens lettuce mix, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, and guac.
- Double High Protein Burrito (79g protein, 6g fiber, 840 calories) – A high protein burrito featuring double Adobo Chicken, fresh tomato salsa, fajita veggies, Monterey Jack cheese, and romaine lettuce.
- High Protein Cup with Adobo Chicken (32g protein, 180 calories) – A 4-ounce side of Adobo Chicken packed with flavor and real protein—the perfect snack or extra side of protein to add to any order.
- Adobo Chicken Taco (15g protein, 190 calories) – A soft flour tortilla, Adobo Chicken, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, Monterey Jack cheese, and romaine lettuce.
“For years, guests have used Chipotle’s customizable offerings to build high protein and fiber-filled meals on their own,” said Chris Brandt, President, Chief Brand Officer. “This curated menu brings that fan behavior to the forefront with clean ingredients and flexible portions, making protein and other dietary goals easier to reach.”
The menu comes in response to a recent study, saying that 70% of Americans are prioritizing protein consumption, and to coincide with its release, Chipotle has partnered with influencers to feature their go-to entrees as expanded app and online-exclusive options:
- Josh Hart’s High Protein Burrito (95g protein, 14g fiber, 1340 calories) – A high protein burrito featuring double Adobo Chicken, white rice, black beans, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, sour cream, and Monterey Jack cheese.
- Smaller Sam’s High Protein Tacos (40g protein, 6g fiber, 580 calories) – Three crispy corn tortilla tacos featuring Adobo Chicken, light roasted chili-corn salsa, fajita veggies with sides of tomatillo-red chili salsa, and sour cream.
- Kylie’s High Protein Chicken Bowl (52g protein, 12g fiber, 690 calories) – A balanced bowl featuring Adobo Chicken, half white rice, half brown rice, half black beans, half pinto beans, extra fajita veggies, tomatillo green-chili salsa, Monterey Jack cheese, and romaine lettuce.
Chipotle’s new High Protein Menu is set to hit the U.S. and Canada on December 23, and will be available in-restaurant, except for the influencer builds, and in-app. Prices may vary by menu item and location.
