🍽️ Recipe Nutrition Calculator – Google Sheets Template

Build better meals with data!
Track, calculate, and analyze the full nutritional breakdown of your recipes—including sub-recipes—with this powerful, fully automated Recipe Nutrition Calculator in Google Sheets.

🔍 What Is the Recipe Nutrition Calculator?

• The Recipe Nutrition Calculator allows you to:
• Create custom recipes with detailed nutritional values.
• Automatically convert units (grams, teaspoons, cups, etc.).
• Link sub-recipes together (e.g., use your pizza dough inside a margarita pizza).
• Calculate per-serving nutritional content with one click.
• Whether you’re meal prepping, managing a food blog, or creating dishes for your fitness goals, the Recipe Nutrition Calculator makes it easy to stay informed.

💡 Key Features of the Recipe Nutrition Calculator

💡 Smart Ingredient Database:
Enter your ingredients once with their nutritional values (calories, protein, carbs, fat). The calculator does the rest—matching units and scaling quantities automatically.

🔄 Unit Conversion Engine:
Need to convert from tablespoons to grams? Liters to milliliters? Our built-in unit of measure sheet handles both solid and liquid conversions, with full support for unique units like “each” (e.g., eggs, cans).

📦 Sub-Recipe Builder:
Reuse existing recipes inside new ones. For example, add your pizza dough to a new pizza recipe—without re-entering any data.

📋 One-Click Recipe Save:
Using Google Apps Script, you can easily save a new recipe and its full nutritional profile to your database—ready to reuse in future meals.

🔎 Validation + Clean Drop-downs:
Use drop-down menus for ingredients and units to avoid errors. Everything is preconfigured so you can focus on building recipes, not formatting spreadsheets.
