Chipotle white rice calories come to 210 for a standard 4 oz scoop, carrying 40 g of carbohydrate and 350 mg of sodium. It is the default base in most orders and the single easiest thing to adjust, because asking for light rice halves it to 105 calories without changing anything else on the plate.

Cilantro-lime rice is salted and finished with lime juice, which puts 350 mg of sodium in a scoop — more than a serving of chicken at 310 mg. On a sodium-controlled order the rice is a bigger lever than the meat, and brown rice at 190 mg is the easy fix.
Both are 210 calories a scoop. White carries 40 g of carbohydrate to brown's 36 g, and 1 g of fiber to brown's 2 g. The meaningful gap is sodium: 350 mg against 190 mg, a difference of 160 mg.

| White rice | 210 | 4 g | 40 g | 4 g | 1 g | 350 mg | 0 g | 0 g |
| Brown rice | 210 | 4 g | 36 g | 6 g | 2 g | 190 mg | 1 g | 0.5 g |
Light rice at Chipotle is about 105 calories for a half scoop, saving 105 against a full one and halving the carbohydrate to 20 g. It is the least disruptive calorie cut available, because the bowl keeps a grain base rather than losing the volume entirely. Sodium halves too, from 350 mg to 175 mg.
Cauliflower rice is lower in calories than white rice, by a wide margin: 40 against 210 a scoop. Carbohydrate separates them further, at 5 g against 40 g. Cauliflower rice carries 260 mg of sodium to white rice's 350 mg, so it wins on that measure too.
