QDOBA Black Beans Calories

Short answer

QDOBA Black Beans have 140 calories in the documented 4-ounce serving. That row lists 1 gram of fat, 330 milligrams of sodium, 24 grams of carbs, 14 grams of fiber, 1 gram of sugar, and 9 grams of protein. It is a bean-only value and does not include rice, chicken, steak, queso, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, a tortilla, chips, or a drink.

The separate kids Black Beans row lists 70 calories for 2 ounces, with 0 grams of displayed fat, 170 milligrams of sodium, 12 grams of carbs, 7 grams of fiber, 1 gram of sugar, and 5 grams of protein. Use the smaller row for the documented kids portion, not as an automatic estimate for every light-looking adult scoop.

Four-ounce and two-ounce portions

The kids serving is half the listed weight of the adult ingredient serving, and its 70 calories are half of 140. Carbs and fiber also divide exactly in the displayed rows. Protein is listed as 5 grams for 2 ounces and 9 grams for 4 ounces, while sodium is 170 and 330 milligrams, because published restaurant nutrition values use rounding.

Choose the row connected to the menu format being estimated. A standard custom bowl or burrito in this calculator uses the 4-ounce black bean row in its documented default. A kids meal or Mini Bowl can use the 2-ounce kids row when that smaller component mapping applies. If the served amount is unknown, state the assumption instead of inferring ounces from the container.

• 4 ounces: 140 calories, 24 grams of carbs, 14 grams of fiber, and 9 grams of protein.
• Kids 2 ounces: 70 calories, 12 grams of carbs, 7 grams of fiber, and 5 grams of protein.
• Extra beans should be counted as another stated portion when a full additional serving is ordered.

Black beans in bowls and burritos

A custom entree contains more than beans. Start with the selected base, add one 4-ounce black bean row when appropriate, and then add protein, salsa, queso, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, vegetables, and extras. The bean calories remain 140 in both a bowl and burrito when the portion stays the same.

A burrito also includes a tortilla. The documented 12.5-inch flour tortilla is 300 calories before beans or other fillings. Pairing it with one 4-ounce black bean serving creates a 440-calorie subtotal before rice, protein, dairy toppings, salsa, or extras. A bowl omits that tortilla but can still become larger when other portions increase.

Use the bowl versus burrito guide to compare formats with the same bean serving on each side. This isolates the format difference instead of accidentally comparing 4 ounces of beans in one meal with 2 ounces in the other.

Fiber and protein in the complete meal

The 4-ounce black bean row contributes 14 grams of fiber and 9 grams of protein. Those fields can make beans an important part of the finished total, but they should still be read with the meal’s calories, carbs, fat, and sodium. Rice, tortillas, proteins, cheese, queso, sauces, and sides all change the final result.

The 2-ounce row lists 7 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein. Do not double-count it when a documented Mini Bowl or kids meal default already includes the kids black bean component. If an additional side of beans is eaten, add the separate portion and keep it visible in the calculator.

For broader meal comparisons, the high-protein planning guide helps compare complete builds rather than ranking one ingredient alone. A useful choice depends on all selected components and the portion actually eaten.

Kids meals, Mini Bowls, and sides

The kids black bean row is useful when a kids meal or documented smaller bowl uses 2 ounces. It does not include a tortilla, taco filling, quesadilla, chips, applesauce, cookie, or drink. Add the components included with the actual meal instead of treating 70 calories as a full kids meal total.

This site’s documented default Mini Bowl also uses the 2-ounce black bean row with smaller rice and chicken portions plus pico de gallo, cheese, and sour cream. Its complete default estimate is 365 calories, not 70. The Mini Bowl calorie guide explains that component set and its limits.

A separate side may use a different serving assumption from beans placed inside an entree. Choose the closest documented row, count only the amount eaten, and avoid assigning one side to every diner when it was shared.

Vegan source callout and preparation limits

The local 4-ounce Black Beans row includes a vegan source callout. That is useful source context, but it is not a guarantee about cross-contact, every restaurant practice, or every future recipe. Shared preparation areas and local handling can matter for strict dietary decisions.

The nutrition row does not list an allergen code, but an empty code should not be interpreted as a medical safety promise. Review the current official QDOBA dietary and allergen materials linked on the nutrition page, ask the restaurant when preparation matters, and consult a qualified professional for allergy or medical needs.

Nutrition materials, recipes, portions, and menu availability can change after the saved source date. Use 140 and 70 calories as documented planning baselines for their stated serving sizes, not as measurements of a particular scoop or guarantees about a current order.
