How much beans to feed 14 people?

Answer 1

How many potatoes does each person eat? Are they children or adults? How big are the potatoes?

Answer

If these are regular sized red potatoes, they should do for 2-3 people, none of which are large eaters. If you have added other ingredients (ie scalloped potatoes) to them, then it may be less .

Answer 2

A general rule of thumb is one large potato per person, minimum. You should take into account that is one large helping per person. As long as this is not the only side, this is normally sufficient.

Answer 3

Four pounds should be enough. A single serving is considered about half a cup or 4 ounces. You'll need more if they are hungry, or there are fewer choices.

Answer 4

It would depend on the size of individual potatoes asked in this way. I would rather deal in pounds and would use about 3 pounds of potato for 14 people.
