Chow Mein — Panda Express Nutrition Facts

Chow Mein is a popular side dish at Panda Express. A single 11 oz serving contains 600 calories, 15g of protein, 94g of carbohydrates, and 23g of fat.

Because it provides more energy and carbohydrates than lighter sides such as Super Greens (130 calories per serving), portion size matters when you are watching total meal calories.

If you are trying to reduce your calorie intake, consider pairing a smaller portion of Chow Mein with a lean entrée instead of combining it with multiple high calorie dishes.

Most of the calories in Chow Mein come from carbohydrates, making it a substantial source of energy. This can be useful for active days or when you want a more filling side or entrée.

The moderate to higher carbohydrate level can support energy needs, especially when combined with a protein rich entrée such as Grilled Teriyaki Chicken.

Cooking oil and sauce ingredients contribute to the fat content and the familiar Panda Express flavor profile.

Whether Chow Mein fits into a weight loss plan depends on your overall calorie intake and how it fits within the rest of your meal.

If you are aiming to lose weight, you may want to:

• Consider a smaller portion of Chow Mein or balance it with a very light side.
• Pair it with Super Greens instead of Fried Rice when you want fewer carbohydrates.
• Choose grilled chicken instead of breaded entrées when building your plate.
• Skip extra sugary sauces to reduce additional calories.
• Keep your total meal under your daily calorie target using our nutrition calculator.

Moderation is usually more important than eliminating a favorite menu item completely.

Many customers combine Chow Mein with protein rich entrées to create a more balanced meal. Popular combinations include:

According to official Panda Express allergen information, Chow Mein contains Sesame.

Because Panda Express prepares food using shared cooking equipment, cross contact with other allergens may occur. Customers with severe food allergies should always verify ingredients and preparation methods directly with their local restaurant before ordering.
