1. The most desired nutrition facts are listed first and foremost on any nutrition facts table on prepared foods. Check a food label for ideas. Certainly calories, fat, carbs, protein... also sodium, fiber, and iron. Here is a good site where you can plug in yoru recipe and it calculates all that for you: http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php?process=resubmit&count=4
2. umm calories daily intake trans fat how much grams of fat per serving how much servings should you have umm ingredients
3. I would possibly look at putting info in as to protein rich foods or carb rich foods. I'm not a cook though but if I was in health training to slim down or maybe intolerant to some products I would look at this. Info on if the food is lactose free would be a good one!
4. fat, salt, sugar per serving?
