One package is a 449-calorie meal

The label serving is the whole 340 g package, and that is how most people eat it. It brings 449 calories, 20 g of protein and 28 g of fat. That is 22% of the daily calorie value and 40% of the protein value used on this page, which makes it a full meal rather than a side.

Split it and the numbers shrink fast. A 4 oz portion (113 g) comes to 149 calories with 6.6 g of protein, only 7% of the daily calorie value. If you serve the package to share, or pull a portion off for a lunch bowl, that smaller line is the one to log.

Going the other way adds up just as quickly. Two packages total 898 calories and 40 g of protein across 680 g of food. Three packages reach 1,346 calories, which is a large share of a day for one sitting. Weigh what lands on your plate if you are counting closely.

Fat is nearly two thirds of every calorie

The calorie split is lopsided: 63% from fat, 20% from protein and 17% from carbs. Per 100 g you get 8.2 g of fat against 5.9 g of protein and 5 g of carbs. The beef and lamb carry the fat, while the quinoa and red peppers add most of the carbs.

Saturated fat sits at 2.4 g per 100 g, measured against a daily value of 20 g. Across a whole package the total fat climbs to 28 g, against a daily value of 78 g. Cholesterol is modest at 22 mg per 100 g.

So this is not a lean protein dish. It is a meat-and-grain meal where fat sets the calorie count. If you want more protein for the same calories, a plain grilled meat or chicken option will do better than a mixed packaged meal.

Sodium stays moderate for a packaged meal

Packaged meals often run salty, but this one does not. A full package holds 330 mg of sodium, which is 14% of the 2,300 mg daily value. Per 100 g it is just 97 mg.

That leaves room for sauces and sides. Even two packages come to 660 mg of sodium. If you watch sodium, the dressing, pita or pickles you add will likely matter more than the kebab itself.

Sugar is low too, at 4 g for the whole package and 1.2 g per 100 g. Neither row is the one to worry about here; fat is.

Add vegetables to fix the low fiber

Fiber is the weak spot. A package gives only 2 g, against a daily value of 28 g, and 100 g gives 0.6 g. The quinoa and peppers help a little, but not enough to make this a filling, fiber-rich plate on its own.

A big salad, roasted vegetables or a side of beans adds volume and fiber for few extra calories. That turns a 449-calorie package into a fuller plate without stacking on more fat. If you eat only part of the package, the vegetables also make a 149-calorie portion feel like a real meal.

Other packaged options on this page include Marketside Mediterranean Recipe Beef Kebabs and Gusta Kebab Shawarma Seitan Loaf, so check each label against these numbers. BodyPal can log your kebab plate from a photo if you would rather not weigh it.

How does kebab compare?

Here is how this packaged kebab stacks up against lamb kebab, chicken kebab and a burrito wrap, per 100 g and per usual serving.

FoodUsual servingkcalkcal / 100 gP / C / F per 100 gSodium / 100 g
Kebab (this page)1 package (340 g)4491325.9 / 5 / 8.297 mg
Lamb kebab1 skewer (113 g)32028324.8 / 0 / 19.781 mg

Burrito wrap1 regular (220 g)48221911.1 / 23.9 / 8.5486 mg

Verdict: For the fewest calories pick chicken kebab at 104 per 100 g, though it carries 346 mg of sodium per 100 g against 97 mg here. For the most protein per bite pick lamb kebab at 24.8 g per 100 g, accepting that it runs 2.1 times the calories, and skip the burrito wrap at 482 per regular wrap if you are counting.
