  • I am pretty sure (didn't check before this post) you can go to there website and they have menu with nutiritional info. I have looked it up before. They have a lot of things you could eat but (as always) the biggest challenge will be portions and sodium. Enjoy your dinner!

    PF Changs website has every dish calculated out with nutritional information. Some stuff is not bad at all.

    They do have their nutritional counts on their website. Read carefully. Many of their dishes are 2-3 servings but their calculations are for 1 serving.

    Also, the sodium counts are out the roof on just about everything. Sodium isn't something I typically watch closely but I happened to look once and we actually ended up not eating their because of it. (And I LOVE Changs!).

    With that said, I love the Chicken with Eggplant.

    ooooo. one of my favorites restaurants!! The Orange Peel Chicken is my favorite. Don't go super hungry - have a healthy snack beforehand. Order water to drink and brown rice and only eat half. Have fun!!

    I would get beef w/broccoli
    But only eat half, because that's 2 servings.

    whenever I order chinese I ask for it steamed and the sauce on the side so I can control how much is used. My favorite is shrimp and chinese vegetables with white sauce (and I use very little) over brown rice. I don't get anything breaded or fried.

    I am going with my 3 kids---one is leaving tomorrow for college, so the getting and sharing is not an issue. I LOVE their lettuce wraps...
