15+ Best Keto Chipotle Bowls, Salads, And Menu Orders For 2021

This list has everything you need for a Chipotle keto meal. Here you'll find every keto friendly menu item, along with a bunch of order examples for how to eat low carb at Chipotle! And, honestly, Chipotle might be the best keto fast food spot for grabbing a quick, tasty, and nutritious meal while following a keto lifestyle.

EVERYTHING KETO AT CHIPOTLE 

Chipotle has super fresh and healthy ingredients, big portions, and it's just insanely delicious. And having the ability to customize your order makes it so easy to create a Chipotle keto bowl or keto salad bowl.

By the way, you seriously won't believe how many different combinations you can create while keeping your order low carb and keto friendly!

It's honestly pretty crazy how great Chipotle is for the keto diet.

With that said, the options we will be going over will show you how to keep your order as low carb as possible if you want to eat keto at Chipotle.

Also, for what it's worth, I think Chipotle is by far one of the best keto fast food options out there. But, I have done a few other "listicle" style posts on some other popular chains that are great for the keto diet too. If you're looking for places that are a little cheaper, check out my Keto at McDonald's, Keto at Taco Bell, or Keto Chick-Fil-A lists!

Oh, and by the way, if you're ever in the mood to make your own homemade keto Chipotle bowl I put together this recipe to help you do it. Honestly, ever since I developed the recipe it's been a huge hit at our house. So I definitely recommend giving it a try.

THINGS TO GET & AVOID AT CHIPOTLE FOR THE KETO DIET

So, as I mentioned, there are a ton of Chipotle keto options to choose from to create your meal. 

But before we get into how to construct your order, let's go over all of the keto friendly ingredients and the ones that you'll want to avoid.

Oh, and I will be giving the total net carbs for each ingredient, and they were calculated using the Chipotle Nutrition Calculator on their website. This calculator makes it simple to find out how many carbs are in each ingredient and your entire order to ensure you're sticking to a keto lifestyle. 

PROTEIN OPTIONS

Chipotle has a variety of keto friendly protein options to choose from for the base of your order. 

Here are the best ones: 

• Carnitas: 0 NET CARBS
• Chicken: 0 NET CARBS
• Steak: 0 NET CARBS
• Barbacoa: 1 NET CARB

So, as you can see, all the protein options at Chipotle are as low carb as it gets. 

The only protein option you'll want to avoid is the Sofritas since it has 6 NET CARBS and isn't great for the keto diet. Having said that, you can order it, but you'll just be limited by the other ingredients you can add in if you want to keep your order low carb. 

TOPPING OPTIONS

There are so many toppings at Chiptole that you can add to your bowl or salad. And what I love about having so many options is that you can literally create a different meal every time!

Check out all of these toppings:

• Romaine Lettuce: 0 NET CARBS
• Monterey Jack Cheese: 1 NET CARB
• Sour Cream: 2 NET CARBS
• Guacamole: 2 NET CARBS
• Fajita Veggies: 4 NET CARBS
• Queso Blanco: 4 NET CARBS
• Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice: 4 NET CARBS - at select locations -

So, there are some ingredients you can add that will slightly increase the carbs in your order and some that will bring the carb count up quickly. 

You'll have to be strategic with what you pair together, and the examples we'll be going over soon will show you how to do just that. 

And speaking of being strategic, if you want a traditional taco instead of a bowl or salad, you can make my Keto Tortillas in just 20 minutes! Each one has only 1.5 NET CARBS compared to the 47 NET CARBS in the tortilla shells at Chipotle.

SALSA OPTIONS

Along with all of the toppings, there are a few salsas that you can add to your order.

Check them out:

• Fresh Tomato Salsa: 3 NET CARBS
• Tomatillo Red Chili Salsa: 3 NET CARBS
• Tomatillo Green Chili Salsa: 4 NET CARBS

So, all the salsas will be adding some extra carbs to your order, so I recommend avoiding them so you can add in more toppings. But if you love tomato salsa, you can easily construct your order to make it work - my favorite is the fresh tomato salsa.

And you can always ask for a half serving of the salsas to cut their carb counts in half too.

Now, one of my favorite things to do is order a side of one of the salsas or guac. And to go with it, make Keto Tortilla Chips recipe in under 10 minutes! They only have 1 NET CARB per serving, so you can enjoy them with anything you end up ordering.

But if I'm really trying to save carbs, I love dipping the tortilla chips in my 0 NET CARB Keto Cheese Sauce.

WHAT TO AVOID AT CHIPOTLE 

So, above are all of the Chipotle keto options that you can add to your order. 

And here is everything that you'll want to avoid:

• Tortilla Chips: 66 NET CARBS
• Flour Tortilla: 47 NET CARBS 
• Cilantro-Lime White Rice: 39 NET CARBS
• Cilantro-Lime Brown Rice: 34 NET CARBS
• Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette: 17 NET CARBS
• Black Beans: 15 NET CARBS
• Pinto Beans: 13 NET CARBS
• Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa: 13 NET CARBS

All of these are high in carbs and will knock you out of ketosis if you add them to your order, so just stick to the low carb ingredients, and you'll be good to go.

CHIPOTLE KETO BOWL ORDERS

Now let's get into how to eat keto at Chipotle!

All of these options are examples of different bowls you can get. Some are super low carb, and some have a little more carbs.
