The Burrito of Doom
After much trial and error, through gastronomical mishaps, skirmish lines of palatability and the unexplored regions of indelicacies beyond human imagination, I have stumbled across this rare specimen.
A burrito of such impeccable pedigree that not only satisfies the appetite, sometimes for days, but also stands apart from others of its namesake in a saintly glow of exceptional nutritional, medicinal and beneficial effects. Not to mention it's scrumptious.
It requires only about 5 minutes to prepare the basic mix for about 6 burritos. Click on the picture for a more detailed visual, but essentially you need these 6 things:
53g Protein
11g fiber (about half your fiber requirements for the day)
6.5g Saturated fat
4g Polyunsaturated fat
50% of daily Calcium
120% of daily Vitamin C
830 calories (you could put less than a handful of cheese on each, if you insisted, and/or eat only one to reduce this if it sounds like too much. I burn about 2,300 calories a day so this is one solid meal; after this for lunch however, I can only eat a light dinner :-)
More protein than a t-bone steak, and less fat.
More fiber than a plate full of broccoli.
More vitamin C than an Orange.
More calcium than a big glass of milk.
High in anti-oxidants.
And yummy!

ReplyDeleteSounds Great...but I think I'm going to try it with some fajita meat (seasoned with "all season") and some grilled onion & bell pepper....oh man, time to make a list and head back to the store.
