It depends if you only serve pasta salad or something else with it. When you serve only the pasta salad - I would use 6 packages ( 6 pounds ) of pasta, 6 tin peas, 24 tomatoes, 8 onions, 2 pounds ham, 6 tin corn, 3 red pepper. If you want to serve this to a bbq - I would recommend a quarter of the recipe above.

Pasta salad is simply a salad with pasta in it, so I would recommend cooking some pasta noodles, then refrigerating them, then throwing all your favorite veggies into a bowl with the noodles, then choose your favorite dressing, then mixing it all together.
