Panda Express Cub Meal: official kids-menu nutrition

Q: What comes in a Panda Express Cub Meal?

A Cub Meal includes a junior side, a junior entree, Tree Top Apple Crisps, and a bottled water, in one of three official combinations: Broccoli Beef, Grilled Teriyaki Chicken, or Orange Chicken.

Q: Can I build a custom kids meal instead of the 3 official combos?

Yes — Panda Express also publishes cub-size (junior) portions for individual sides and entrees separately, which this page's calculator uses to estimate a custom build. These standalone cub portions may not exactly match the official combo meal totals.

Panda Express's Cub Meal comes in 3 fixed combinations, each with an official calorie and protein total. Below that, build a custom kids-size meal from real junior portions.

The 3 official Cub Meal combinations

Each Cub Meal includes a junior side, a junior entree, Tree Top Apple Crisps, and a bottled water. These totals are Panda Express's own published figures for the complete bundle — not a sum of separately-priced junior items.

Panda Express official Cub Meal combinations
Cub Meal	Calories	Protein	Carbs	Fat
Broccoli Beef Cub Meal White rice, super greens, broccoli beef, apple crisps, water	300	11g	49g	7g
Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Cub Meal Chow mein, super greens, grilled teriyaki chicken, apple crisps, water	400	28g	36g	16g
Orange Chicken Cub Meal White rice, super greens, orange chicken, apple crisps, water	580	22g	84g	17g

The Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Cub Meal has by far the best protein-to-calorie ratio of the three — 28g of protein for just 400 calories, versus 22g for 580 calories on the Orange Chicken version.

Note: the calculator below uses Panda Express's separately-published junior (cub-size) portions for individual sides and entrees. These are real official values, but they're priced and portioned as standalone a la carte junior items — mixing and matching them will not necessarily reproduce the exact totals of the 3 fixed Cub Meals above.
