Last week I ate at Chipotle for the first time, so I decided to make a bunch of Chipotle copycat recipes that taste like the original, but I’m guessing are a lot healthier.
We’ll make Sofritas, Black Beans, Cilantro Lime Rice, Pico De Gallo, No Fat Tortillas and Guacamole. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I did. They contain little to no fat, are lower in sodium and extremely cheap. All the recipes can be found below.
