Super Greens (side): 130 cal | 9g protein | 7g fiber — the fiber anchor

Grilled Teriyaki Chicken: 275 cal | 33g protein | 0g fiber — highest-efficiency entree

Broccoli Beef: 150 cal | 15g protein | 2g fiber — lowest-calorie high-protein entree

This combination achieves both goals simultaneously: 57g protein satisfies high-protein targets, while 9g fiber is meaningful dietary fiber for a fast food meal. At 555 calories, it leaves room in most daily calorie budgets.

What "Protein and Fiber Plate" Means at Panda Express

Some Panda Express locations have informally offered a "protein and fiber plate" modification — typically Super Greens as the side with customer-chosen high-protein entrees. Not all locations use this term, and it is not a standardized menu item.

If you ask for it and the staff isn't familiar with the term, simply specify: "Super Greens as my side, and Grilled Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli Beef as my entrees." That produces the same result without relying on the informal name.

What to say when ordering

"I'd like a Plate with Super Greens as the side, and Grilled Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli Beef as my two entrees."
