Our group found this website to have the students log their daily nutrition for breakfast, lunch, dinner and three snacks. (Click the picture to link to pdf.)
The log will include their meals, calories, fat, carbs, sugar, protein, and sodium. They will also be logging their exercise and how much time they spend doing their activities and how many calories are burned in that week. The assessment will include figuring out how many calories they are burning versus intaking in their nutrition. Then they will have vocabulary testing over words such as nutrition, calories, carbohydrates, protein, exercise, fat, body mass index, sugar(s), food pyramid, and fiber, etc.
We found this website with an example test:

We also found a link to some great healthy snacks:

The second part of the assessment will include the following pyramid in which the students will be labeling and coloring the nutritional food pyramid.
