I am preparing cream potatoes for a wedding of 250. i am using those aluminum pans which are medium in size ... how many do you think it will take? |

About 100 pounds of potatoes. Do one pan for the family, and see how much it will hold, pounds and sauce. Allow at least 1/2 cup per person. |

Kim, I don't know the size of the bowls (3, 4 or 6 ounce) or the bags. The bags give an estimated number of servings on their label; if you don't want to measure yourself, use that. |

We're having a Father/Daughter day at camp. 100 dads, 120 daughters (ages 6-16, most around 10) plus 30 volunteers (adult women). Dinner is pasta (either your budget spaghetti or lasagna). We serve family style so I was thinking a 9x13 pan for each table of 8 (4 dads and 4 daughters). Additional items: meatballs, salad and garlic toast. BUT, I know some of the girls will want plain pasta with butter. Do you have a guess as to how many pounds of plain pasta we'll need? I was thinking of using Penne. I am only planning 3-1" frozen meatballs per person. Does that sound OK? THANK YOU! |

I would make about 3 pounds plain. Only suggestion, switch to the smaller meatballs- it looks like more on the plate- |
