I'm sure this tastes fine as it is just rice, cheese, chicken and broccoli, but the nutritional facts are far from heart healthy. I think this recipe has a major problem with portion control with 763 calories, 865mg of sodium, 119mg of cholesterol and 25g of fat per serving. I'd recommend using a smaller, whole wheat tortilla, less cheese, more broccoli and rice. Even two cups of chicken for four burritos is a lot.
This is a very easy recipe but it just needs to be scaled back. Eating one of these burrito's will bring you over your daily recommended amount of protein, a third of a days worth of fat, half a day of cholesterol and a little under half a days recommendation of sodium.
Where as one of these won't kill you, depending on how conscious you are of what you're eating, you may eat half a days worth of food in one sitting.
