Is Chipotle Sauce Halal?

There is not a single herb or fruit or vegetable that is Haram (Not Halal), and like I always say here for such “Halal” issues, the default in Islam is about Halal, the Haram are quite few and they are about drinks and meats/fat.

If there is no pork, ham, bacon or lard included in your recipe then it is all Halal.

As for drinks, whatever gets you to lose control due to drinking it is in fact (Haram), this includes beer, wine and all sorts of liquors, even if a whole quantity of it is to make you drunken then the least amount of it is Haram.

Does Chipotle Offer Halal Options?

Yes, chipotle does indeed offer many halal options on its menu today. Halal options in Chipotle include:

Salads

Chipotle salads are similar to Burrito Bowls except they’re on a bed of romaine lettuce instead of rice. You can load up all the toppings you’d like (such as beans, fajita veggies, sofritas tofu, corn, tomatoes, and salsa).

Burritos

Chipotle’s burritos are made with a large, soft, warmed flour tortilla filled with any ingredient toppings you’d like (such as your choice of rice, beans, veggies, tofu, salsa, lettuce, and guacamole.)

Burrito Bowls

These are essentially burritos without the tortilla served up in a bowl. People may choose burrito bowls because they prefer eating with a fork or looking for a healthier, gluten-free, or lower-carb option.

Tacos

You can order single tacos or a full 3-taco meal served up in soft flour tortillas or crispy corn tortilla taco shells. Fill your tacos with all the vegan fixins (such as your choice of rice, beans, veggies, tofu, salsa, lettuce, and guacamole.)
