What matters before you order
The Veggie Bowl is the lower-priced of the two current bowls and is marked vegetarian. Its base build already includes rice, beans, guacamole, vegetables, two creamy toppings and cheese, so it is a complete bowl rather than a meat item with the protein removed.
What the price means
At $7.89, it is $0.50 below the Cantina Chicken Bowl and lists 150 fewer calories. It is $2.20 above the Veggie Mexican Pizza in the current category data, though the bowl includes rice, beans and guacamole instead of crisp shells.
Item overview
A vegetarian-listed bowl with seasoned rice, black beans, lettuce, purple cabbage, pico de gallo, guacamole, Avocado Ranch sauce, reduced-fat sour cream and cheddar cheese.

Popular upgrade reference
| Upgrade | Reference add-on price | Added calories |
|---|---|---|
| Tomatoes | $0.80 | 0 Cal |
| Jalapeño Peppers | $0.65 | 5 Cal |
| Potatoes | $0.95 | 100 Cal |
| Seasoned Fries | $0.60 | 120 Cal |
How to customize without losing the value
Tomatoes and jalapeños are the cleanest low-calorie upgrades. Potatoes or fries add another starch to a bowl that already contains rice and beans. Adding slow-roasted chicken would end the vegetarian base and should be compared directly with the $8.39 Cantina Chicken Bowl.
Price position inside the Bowls category

Practical ordering advice
Keep the base bowl when vegetarian value is the goal; it already includes guacamole. If you plan to add chicken, the price difference from the Cantina Chicken Bowl may be smaller than the combined customization cost at your restaurant.
Availability intelligence
Listed on the current official U.S. web menu; restaurant participation varies. The item should be treated as location- and participation-dependent. For breakfast items, local breakfast participation and cutoff time also apply.
Nutrition and allergen use
The current listing shows 420 calories. The item is lacto-ovo vegetarian, not vegan, because cheese, sour cream and Avocado Ranch appear in the build. Taco Bell also warns that vegetarian and meat ingredients share preparation areas.
