I get this Everytime I eat Mexican, it's basically rice topped with grilled chicken and covered in queso but I don't no the calorie contents. Does anyone have an idea? (Usually called a Happy Plate, Salsa Special)

    It depends on the portion size. For a decent restaurant-sized portion, I would say:
    2.5 cups of cooked white rice - 600 Calories
    8oz chicken breast - 375 Calories
    0.75 cups queso dip - about 300 Calories
    Total: 1275 calories
  • Geez...someone told me it was a lighter portion and that's what I always ate

    Is the restaurant On the Border? I think their queso chicken is around 800 calories (but it has a much smaller portion of rice and additional vegetables).
