Hi Karla:
ReplyDeleteIs the 320 calories for the full burrito or for half the burrito? Looks like this will satisfy my craving for Mexican! Is it on the lunch menu this week??!! LOL!
Hi Kevin,
ReplyDeleteIt's 320 calories for 1/2 a burrito. The beans and veggies will help fill you up so you won't be as hungry. You can also have a side of tortilla soup with your meal if you choose. Hope you enjoy!
This looks good, I am going to try it this weekend :)
