Looking to the Calorie content of 100gm pasta which is 352.
I believe that 100gm of Pasta with Good amount of whichever sauce you are using and vegetables will be good for a person.
So for 20 people which i am assuming are adults and someone might be more hungry than other and other might like your cooking skills then you will require 2 kg 200 gms of Pasta give or take a 100 gm which will be 4.9 pounds if you round off.

** Also if you are giving them something else like juice,soft-drinks,coffee or any other thing then you might want to reduce the amount by about a pound.
So 4 or 4.2 pounds if you are also giving them something else before pasta.

  • So you will require 4.9 to 5 pounds of pasta for 20 people if they are not fed with something else (Like Juices) before.

# You can though always eat it later if you store it in refrigerator for about a day or so and if you want to store for about 2 days then i will suggest you heating it again after first day to prevent any spoilage of pasta.


Have a Nice day !
