Don't make the same mistake I did today...

I got an email from hungry girl that told me about tangy shrimp and vegetables in panda bowl for only 5 pts! I didn't know they offered more than one shrimp dish and was so excited to go and get honey walnut shrimp-that's tangy right? Well it was delish! Problem was, I came home to post about it and in copying the hg info. realized I ordered the WRONG shrimp! Darn it, an extra 4 pts on my lunch. Shoot. Good thing I had the veggie bowl! Read hg's email excerpt at the bottom.


Panda Express Panda Bowl, Tangy Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables
PER SERVING (1 bowl): 260 calories, 7.5g fat, 1,350mg sodium, 32g carbs, 7g fiber, 18g sugars, 17g protein -- POINTS® value 5*

We dig the Panda Bowl. Why? Because so often at quickie Chinese joints, you find yourself staring at a Styrofoam container packed with THREE different entrées and a giant mound of rice. This reasonably sized, one-entrée/one-side option is MUCH more sensible. And the fact that you can get mixed veggies instead of rice or noodles is enough to make us want to hug a panda. (OK, we pretty much ALWAYS want to hug a panda.) BTW, if you count sodium, you NEED to avoid this one.
