Recipe Nutrition Calculator (Per Serving)

Paste your ingredients, choose how many servings you get, and see a quick estimate of calories, protein, carbs, and fat per serving. Ideal for US home cooks, meal prep fans, and anyone keeping an eye on macros.

This tool is for educational use only and provides approximate values, not medical or clinical nutrition advice. For exact numbers, always check official nutrition labels or consult a registered dietitian.

This is optional, but it makes it easier to save or share your results later.

Total number of portions this recipe makes (e.g., 2 bowls, 4 slices, 6 tacos).

Write each ingredient on a new line with an approximate quantity and unit (grams, cups, tbsp, etc.). The calculator uses typical values from common food databases to estimate nutrition for the full recipe and then divides by servings.

How this recipe nutrition calculator works

When you paste your ingredient list and number of servings, the calculator reads each line, applies typical nutrition values from common food databases, and builds an approximate profile for your full recipe. That total is then divided by the serving count to give an estimate per serving.

Because different brands, cooking methods, and portion sizes change the actual numbers, this tool is best used as a quick reference for home cooking, meal prep, and macro awareness— not as a medical or clinical tool.

Quick tips for better estimates

  • Use consistent units (grams, cups, tbsp) where possible.
  • Include oils and sauces if you want them to count toward calories and fat.
  • Split complex recipes (e.g. sauce + base) into sections if needed and then combine.
  • Compare with a trusted label once in a while to see how close the estimate is.

Frequently asked questions

Is this accurate enough for medical use?
No. This is an educational calculator only. For medical conditions or strict diets, please rely on official nutrition labels and professional guidance.

Is it built for US measurements?
The tool works with any plain-English input, but it is written primarily with US home cooks and recipes in mind (cups, tablespoons, etc.). You can still use grams if you prefer.
