Guzman y Gomez Bowls

The six burrito bowls are the burrito without the tortilla, served with corn chips: rice, beans, filling, cheese and salsa. They run from 641 Cal to 781 Cal, which makes every bowl 114 Cal lighter than the matching burrito.

Five of the six bowls are flagged gluten-friendly in our data, since there is no wheat tortilla. The exception is the pulled shiitake bowl, which lists soy and sulphites as well as milk, and is not flagged.

Protein is strong: the shredded beef brisket bowl has 43.9 g, the Grilled Chicken Bowl 43.7 g. Fibre ranges from 6.1 g to 15.9 g in the shiitake bowl. Sodium is 1,600–2,060 mg, a little lower than the burritos but still high.

Bowls are the best base for a high-protein build: adding a 100 g portion of extra chicken takes the grilled chicken bowl to about 70.9 g of protein (details in the high-protein guide). Swapping to brown rice removes about 22 Cal.
