One pound of dry macaroni typically yields about 4 to 4.5 cups of cooked macaroni. The exact amount can vary slightly depending on the specific shape of the pasta and how long it is cooked. Generally, pasta roughly doubles in size when cooked, so it's a good rule of thumb to expect approximately 2 cups of cooked macaroni per 1 cup of dry macaroni.
The macaroni will swell at least double in size when it absorbs the water while boiling. For small noodles such as macaroni, 1 cup dry noodles will equal about 2-1/2 cups boiled noodles.Thus, 2 cups of dry macaroni will make 5 cups cooked macaroni.Note: a cup of dry noodles equals 4 oz, so a pound of dry noodles is about 4 cups and will make 10 cups cooked noodles.For long noodles like spaghetti, 4 oz dry noodles will make 2 cups cooked noodles, or 1 lb will make 8 cups cooked.
That would be about 2 cups.
