1. Calorie and Saturated Fat Tool For Recipe Analysis

2. Why? With the changes to the NSLP effective July 1, 2012, calculating calories and saturated fat quantities for each item served is imperative to make sure your meals are fitting within the range requirements. This can be cumbersome for all schools, and especially the schools who do not have nutrient analysis software systems. Today you will learn how to find and interpret the information that is provided for you on labels as well as finding nutrition information that is not as easily located.

5. Example Recipe

6. To find out how many ¼ cup servings our recipe has: Divide the total from recipe: 10 cups By ¼ cup servings (or.25). 10 cups ÷.25 cups = 40 quarter-cup servings There are 40 quarter-cup servings in our recipe. Take this number and multiply it by the calories in a quarter-cup serving size. 40 quarter cup servings in our recipe x 110 calories 4,400 calories in a recipe Take this number and multiply it by the saturated fat in a quarter-cup serving size. 40 quarter cup servings in our recipe x 6 g of saturated fat 240 g of saturated fat in a recipe Example: Shredded Cheese Label From Bag

10. To find out how many 3.17 oz servings our recipe has: Divide the total from recipe: 10 lbs (160 oz) By 3.17 oz servings 160 oz ÷ 3.17 oz = 50.47 servings of 3.17 oz There are 50.47 servings of 3.17 oz in our recipe. Take this number and multiply it by the calories in a 3.17 oz serving size. 50.47 oz of 3.17 oz servings in our recipe x 111 calories 5,602 calories in a recipe Take this number and multiply it by the saturated fat in a quarter-cup serving size. 50.47 oz of 3.17 oz servings in our recipe x 1.7 g of saturated fat 85.8 g of saturated fat in a recipe Example: Pork Taco Filling

12. Example Search: Salsa

13. Type in the amount you need in a column that is appropriate, for our example, we need 3 cups of salsa.

14. Calories will be located under the title ENERGY CALORIES = ENERGY Saturated Fat will be located under the heading LIPIDS  Fatty acids, total saturated SATURATED FAT = FATTY ACIDS, TOTAL SATURATED Tips for USDA Nutrient Database

15. Final Components of Recipe Following the same steps as noted on previous slides, the following information was found: Cheddar Cheese (10 cups) = 4,400 calories, 240 g saturated fat Pork Taco Filling (10 lbs) = 5,602 calories, 85.8 g saturated fat Refried Beans (18 cups) = 3898 calories, 16.75 g saturated fat Salsa (3 cups) = 270 calories, 0.2 g saturated fat 8” Tortillas (50 each) = 7318 calories, 17.7 g saturated fat
