Best Bites: Panda Express

You are craving Panda Express for lunch.   What are the healthiest choices to make?

Lowest Calorie Entrees: Choose one of their "Wok Smart" dishes which are less than 250 calories such as:

• Broccoli Beef (130 cal)
• String Bean Chicken Breast (170 cal)
• Kobari Beef (210 cal)
• Potato Chicken (220 cal)
• Mushroom Chicken (220 cal)
• Black Pepper Chicken (250 cal)

TIPS:

• Avoid fried meats and appetizers: skip if it's described as "crispy"
• Limit rice: One serving of white rice is 420 cal and fried rice is 570 cal so split it with a friend or get the mixed veggies for 70 calories instead.
• Check the website before heading in for nutrition information and the nutrition calculator!
• You can still find a lower calorie dish here but just remember most of the dishes are loaded with sodium

Worst Picks:  The highest calorie items are the Beijing Beef (690 cal) and the Fried Rice (570 cal)
