Panda Express Cub Meal Calories: Complete Meal and Serving Guide

The snapshot has three complete Cub Meal rows

The 300-calorie Broccoli Beef Cub Meal row names white rice, Super Greens, Broccoli Beef, apple crisps, and bottled water. The 400-calorie Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Cub Meal row names Chow Mein, Super Greens, Grilled Teriyaki Chicken, apple crisps, and bottled water. The 580-calorie Orange Chicken Cub Meal row names white rice, Super Greens, Orange Chicken, apple crisps, and bottled water.

Use a complete row only when its named configuration matches the meal you are modeling. Replacing the entree, changing the side combination, omitting a component, or adding another item creates a different order. The table does not support carrying the 300, 400, or 580 total unchanged across every possible Cub Meal selection.

• Broccoli Beef Cub Meal: 300 calories for the exact white rice, Super Greens, Broccoli Beef, apple crisps, and bottled water row.
• Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Cub Meal: 400 calories for the exact Chow Mein, Super Greens, Grilled Teriyaki Chicken, apple crisps, and bottled water row.
• Orange Chicken Cub Meal: 580 calories for the exact white rice, Super Greens, Orange Chicken, apple crisps, and bottled water row.

Compare the complete nutrition profiles

The complete Broccoli Beef row lists a 9.5 oz serving with 7g of fat, 49g of carbohydrates, 6g of fiber, 11g of protein, and 500mg of sodium. The complete Grilled Teriyaki Chicken row lists 9.3 oz with 16g of fat, 36g of carbohydrates, 5g of fiber, 28g of protein, and 700mg of sodium. The complete Orange Chicken row lists 9.5 oz with 17g of fat, 84g of carbohydrates, 5g of fiber, 22g of protein, and 705mg of sodium.

The calorie ranking does not predict every other field. Grilled Teriyaki Chicken is between the other two in calories but has the highest listed protein. Broccoli Beef is lowest in calories, fat, and sodium among these three rows and has the highest listed fiber, while its carbohydrates are higher than the Grilled Teriyaki row. Orange Chicken is highest in calories and carbohydrates, yet its protein is between Broccoli Beef and Grilled Teriyaki Chicken.

These observations compare only the three printed complete configurations. They are not medical recommendations and do not establish which meal is suitable for a particular person. Preference, ingredients, current availability, and individual requirements still need separate consideration.

Complete meal rows are not standalone component variants

The snapshot also contains rows such as “Orange Chicken – Cub Meal” at 380 calories for a 4.44 oz entree serving, “Grilled Teriyaki Chicken – Cub Meal” at 210 calories for 4.5 oz, and “Broccoli Beef – Cub Meal” at 110 calories for 4.1 oz. Those values describe entree components, not the full meal configurations listed at 580, 400, and 300 calories.

Cub Meal side variants are separate as well. White Steamed Rice – Cub Meal, Super Greens – Cub Meal, and Chow Mein – Cub Meal each have their own serving weights and nutrition fields. Adding complete servings of those component variants may not recreate the smaller combined portions represented in a complete meal row. If an exact complete row matches, use it instead of rebuilding it from full component servings.

The distinction also applies to the standard adult-format rows. The Panda Express Orange Chicken Calories: Serving and Meal Guide guide covers the 5.92 oz standard Orange Chicken serving, not the 4.44 oz Cub Meal entree or the complete 9.5 oz named combination. Check the variant label before carrying any number into a Cub Meal estimate.

Use a complete row when every named component matches

For the exact Broccoli Beef configuration, select the complete 300-calorie row once. Do the same with the complete 400-calorie Grilled Teriyaki configuration or the complete 580-calorie Orange Chicken configuration. Do not add the entree and side variant rows again, because that would double count components already represented in the named meal record.

In the Panda Express calorie calculator, search for the full meal name and inspect the complete label before adding it. The Meal total then treats the configuration as one source row. Use the Menu guide to compare its name with the intended order and the Nutrition page page to inspect every captured field rather than relying on the calorie total alone.

• 1. Match the entree, both named side components, apple crisps, and bottled water.
• 2. Add the matching complete Cub Meal row once.
• 3. Do not add component rows already included in that complete record.
• 4. Add only genuine extras or substitutions as separate modeled items.

Model a different configuration carefully

If the planned components do not match one of the three complete rows, do not relabel a nearby total as official. You can select the relevant Cub Meal entree and side variants in the calculator to create a transparent component model, but state that the result sums separate published servings. The actual portions inside a combined meal may not equal full standalone component servings.

For a side comparison, the Panda Express Super Greens vs White Rice: Calories and Nutrition and Panda Express Chow Mein vs Fried Rice Calories: Side Comparison guides explain the standard rows. A Cub Meal calculation must still use the Cub Meal variants where available; substituting an 11 oz standard side for an 8.25 oz Cub Meal side changes the serving unit and can substantially overstate the modeled order.

Record the exact labels and quantities used. This makes the estimate reproducible and keeps a custom model separate from the 300-, 400-, and 580-calorie complete configurations. Do not add assumptions about price, age suitability, container size, or nationwide availability when the nutrition snapshot does not establish them.

Avoid mixing standard and Cub Meal serving sizes

A standard side or entree can share an item name with a Cub Meal variant while using a different weight and nutrition row. Always compare display name, variant label, and serving weight together. Multiplying or dividing a standard value by appearance is less reliable than selecting the specific source row already provided for the child-format component.

Restaurant portions can vary with preparation and utensil fills, and a listed complete weight is not a scale reading for one order. Keep every calculator result labeled as a planning estimate. Nutrition totals also cannot establish ingredient or allergen safety, so use current official information when those questions affect the meal.

Confirm the current complete configuration

This guide uses the Panda Express nutrition snapshot captured August 17, 2026. Complete configurations, component choices, recipes, serving practices, ingredients, allergens, prices, and availability can change. Verify the current meal description and nutrition information with the official Panda Express nutrition page source before ordering when the details matter.

For the captured complete rows, the answer is 300 calories for the named Broccoli Beef Cub Meal, 400 for the named Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Cub Meal, and 580 for the named Orange Chicken Cub Meal. Use those totals only when the exact component list matches; otherwise build and label a separate component-serving estimate.
