Can You Customize It?
Depending on the location, you may be able to:
- Remove cheese sauce (to lower calories slightly)
- Remove American cheese
- Ask for extra hot sauce
- But you can’t make it gluten-free because the tortilla is wheat
For customers watching sodium or fat: this is a high-sodium, high-fat item (2120mg sodium, 53g fat), so tell them to pair with water and avoid extra salty sides.
Is 820 Calories Too Much for Breakfast?
820 calories is definitely on the high end for breakfast, but this item is designed to replace a full plated breakfast. It includes protein (31g), carbs (55g), and fats (53g), plus potatoes inside, so it’s good for people who want a single meal to last for hours (construction workers, drivers, travelers, etc.). If someone wants to reduce calories:
- Order the burrito only (no combo)
- Skip cheese sauce if the store allows
- Skip sugary drinks
