Any of their burritos can be served in a bowl. It came with slices of red pepper, red onion, chunks of tomato with a nice garlicky vinaigrette, a smear of hummus and topped with tzatziki. The chicken was seasoned cubes of chicken breast. That was probably the leasr flavorful part of the bowl, but it didn't matter with the other terrific things that came with it.
It came with a side, I chose the crispy red potatoes with chimichurri which was also really good.

I wish they would open for lunch during the week!

Hi justjoan,
The Whole Foods pie is 9in and I also misquoted the price as it was $14.99 and not $14 which I initially posted above.
Thanks,
