It’s now 2023 and Chipotle is debuting NEW lifestyle bowls… are they vegan?
You might be asking why Chipotle is offering predesigned bowls when it’s so easy to just walk in, go thru the line and order.
People like convenience. They want to be healthy but do not want to have to think too much about it. This is where Chipotle’s lifestyle bowls come in.
Their goal is to make eating healthy easy and delicious!

Which of Chipotle’s Lifestyle Bowls ARE Vegan?
First, I’m going to preface that when choosing to eat at a restaurant that is not 100% vegan, cross-contamination can occur. You choose your level of comfort.
Chipotle DOES label the following bowls vegan though so they are a company that is at least aware of what that means.
And if you read thru the list above, you probably can tell which two are vegan!
Veggie Full Bowl
Chipotle’s Veggie Full Bowl is a rice bowl. It comes with white rice, black beans, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa and guacamole.
Plant Powered Bowl
The Plant Powered Bowl is more like a salad. It comes with their supergreens lettuce blend, white rice, sofritas, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, and guacamole.
This bowl is how I order my bowls from Chipotle minus the fajita veggies but I add pinto beans. Ryan’s is like the Veggie Full Bowl but with their hot sauce, tomatillo red-chili salsa.
