Cheddars Vegetable Plate: Price, Calories & Nutrition Guide
The Cheddars Vegetable Plate is the build-your-own entry on the Comfort Food menu: a house salad or a bowl of Baked Potato Soup to start, then four made-from-scratch sides of your choice as the main event. No two Vegetable Plates have to look alike — it can be the lightest dinner on the menu or a four-side feast, depending entirely on what you pick.
At the Arlington, Texas, Cheddar’s, the Vegetable Plate costs $10.99, and the ordering menu puts its calories anywhere from 560 to 1,960 — the widest range on the menu, because the plate is assembled from your choices. This guide covers the Vegetable Plate price, what comes with it, the calories of every component so you can build the plate you actually want, what to pair it with, and how to order it online.

What Comes With the Vegetable Plate?
The Vegetable Plate starts with a first course: a house salad, a Caesar salad, or a bowl of Baked Potato Soup. Then come the sides — four of them, each picked from Cheddar’s Made From Scratch side list, from sweet baby carrots and Southern green beans to loaded baked potatoes and queso fries.
How Much Does the Vegetable Plate Cost?
The Vegetable Plate price is $10.99 at the Arlington, Texas, Cheddar’s — the salad-or-soup course and all four sides included. It is the lowest-priced plate in the Comfort Food section after the Spasagna, and the only one whose size you fully control.

Vegetable Plate Nutrition and Calories
The Vegetable Plate has no single nutrition panel in Cheddar’s official guide, because the plate does not exist until you build it — that is why the menu prints a range, 560 to 1,960 calories, instead of one number. What the guide does publish is a panel for every component, and the table below collects them. The pattern is simple: the vegetable sides (carrots 35, green beans 60, corn 110) keep a plate light, the potato builds (loaded baked potato with bacon 540, queso and bacon fries 650) make it a feast, and your salad-or-soup choice sets the starting point — a house salad at 140 calories before dressing, or the baked potato soup bowl at 570.

| House Salad (dressing not included) | 140 cals |
| Caesar Salad | 290 cals |
| Baked Potato Soup, Bowl | 570 cals |

| Southern Green Beans | 60 cals |
| Buttered Off-The-Cob Corn | 110 cals |

| Loaded Baked Potato with Bacon | 540 cals |
| Homemade Queso & Bacon French Fries | 650 cals |
What to Pair With the Vegetable Plate
Honey Butter Croissants: Honey Butter Croissants add the one thing the plate does not include: a warm bread. The flaky croissants with honey butter glaze round out a sides-only dinner the way a bread basket should.
Chips & Homemade Queso: Chips & Homemade Queso give the table a shared starter before the sides arrive. Warm queso and house-made tortilla chips are the easy opener — unless queso fries are already one of your four picks.
Hot Fudge Cake Sundae: Hot Fudge Cake Sundae is the finish. Build the plate light and there is real room for the warm hot fudge cake sundae, the classic Cheddar’s dessert to split.
Building Your Plate: Lightest to Heartiest
The lightest honest build starts with the house salad and runs through the vegetable end of the side list: sweet baby carrots (35 calories), Southern green beans (60) and buttered corn (110) alongside something filling like seasoned rice (150). That is the build that lives near the bottom of the menu’s 560–1,960 range, especially once a dressing goes on the salad.
The hearty build goes the other way: the baked potato soup bowl (570) as the opener, then queso and bacon fries (650), a loaded baked potato with bacon (540) and cheese and bacon mashed potatoes (350) — a plate that pushes toward the top of the range and eats like a sampler of the whole sides menu. Most plates land between the two: a salad, two vegetable sides and one indulgent one is the regulars’ balance.
Nutrition and Allergen Considerations
Because every Vegetable Plate is different, there is no single calorie count or allergen listing for it: the official allergen guide flags each side and salad separately in its sides section, so your plate’s allergen picture is the sum of the four sides and the first course you choose. Two standing notes from the menu itself: the Southern green beans are prepared using pork, and the red beans & rice contain pork. Cheddar’s warns that its kitchens use shared cooking and preparation areas, so cross-contact can occur. It cannot guarantee that any menu item is completely free of allergens.
