The standard serving size is 1 cup (of salad) per person, meaning you'd need 75 cups of macaroni salad, which is about 2 ounces of uncooked macaroni per person. This means a 16 ounce package of macaroni can feed about 8 people, meaning you would need 9 boxes. Of course, this is based on if EVERY person ate it, and EVERY person ate 1 cup of the salad. But, keep in mind, if this is on a buffet (where people dip their own), some people will eat a lot more than 1 cup, some will eat a lot less than 1 cup, and others won't eat ANY--making it balance out.
Found this great recipe. It will give you an idea of how much mac and how much cheese.
How much will you serve one person x how many people are expected = how much you should make. For instance, if you will give each person 1 cup of green salad and you are expecting 50 guests, the formula would be 1 x 50 = 50. You'll need 50 cups of salad.
You will need approximately 6 pounds of chicken salad to make 50 mini Croissants. Each process will require approximately 2 ounces of chicken salad.
Depending on what else is on the menu, between 1/4 and a half pound per person.
You will need approximately 6 pounds of chicken salad to make 50 mini croissants. Each process will require approximately 2 ounces of chicken salad.
50% more than it costs to make it.
The amount of green salad you need to feed 45 people depends on how large a serving you want for each person. If you want to provide each person with one cup of salad, you'll need 45 cups of finished salad to feed them all. If you want to give them bigger salads, 1.5 cups each, you'll need 67.5 cups of salad.
For a side dish I'd say about 8
I would make 12 pounds IF it is a side dish, or about 35 pounds if it is the main dish.
I would make 12 pounds
Typically a serving is half a cup volume and weight 4 ounces. There are about 4 servings in a pound of potato salad, depending on density. That would mean 200 servings would be about 50 pounds. That seems to be on the high side.
That depends on what type of orange salad you are making. To determine the amount of food needed you also need to know the serving size.
