Create a Nutrition Facts Label for a single Ingredient

There are some cases where you may want to view a Nutrition Facts label for an individual Ingredient from the database or one you have created. To do so, you will create a Recipe and add the Ingredient to the Recipe as one serving of the Ingredient.

1. Go to New and select Recipe
   
   
   
2. Name the Recipe and select "A recipe makes 1 serving." 
   
3. Click OK.
4. Search for and add the Ingredient with its serving size. To find the appropriate serving size for a food, reference the Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed tables. 
5. Click View Label. The Label will appear with the nutrition breakdown.
   
6. If you wish, you can edit the label to include, for example, a household measure for the serving size, number of servings per container and voluntary nutrients. To make these and other modifications, select Edit Label.
