I'm having my daughter a sweet 16 party and am making a pasta salad as one of the sides. How many trays of pasta salad do I need to feed 100 people?

Virginia,

You need 6 pounds of dry pasta- or up to 8 if there are not other side dishes- for 100 people. There are really good pasta salad recipes for 100 on this site- see the Big Pots page.

Happy birthday, daughter!

If this saves you time, trouble or money, please make a donation, a nickel or dime per guest, to support the site. Thanks.
