A killer burrito from an unexpected source

ho’d have thought you could get a great burrito—that’s good for you—on Nantucket? Well, that’s what makes the Big Mean Green Burrito such a secret. For one thing, it’s served up at the Green, a coffee, breakfast, and lunch spot that doesn’t look like much from the outside, but on the inside features fresh-made and hot-baked sandwiches and other treats, with an emphasis on healthy, organic, and natural. For another, the Big Mean Green Burrito is packed with all things (good guess!) green: cilantro pesto, guacamole, grilled zucchini, and spinach, grass-fed beef, salsa verde, cheddar cheese, and sour cream, all rolled into a whole-wheat wrap. It will make you forget lobster rolls and chowder. Clements
