How Grilled Chicken Burrito and Grilled Chicken Bowl differ
The bowl is the lighter order by 114 Cal: 655 Cal against 769 Cal. Nearly all of that gap is the flour tortilla, which also explains why the bowl has 16.9 g fewer carbs (73.5 g against 90.4 g) and 260 mg less sodium.
What you give up is small. The burrito carries 4.5 g more protein (48.2 g against 43.7 g). Fibre is nearly identical, at 6.8 g and 6.1 g. The same 114 Cal gap applies to every filling, so the pattern holds if you prefer beef, pork or vegetables. Our GYG burrito bowl calories page lists all six bowls.
