I am serving salads for 300 on Christmas Day. The menu will be chicken and ham with Potato salad, coleslaw, bean salad, pasta salad. Can anyone give me an idea of quantity??

For 300 people, this is what I would do:

Potato salad, 12 gallons (about 120 pounds potatoes)
coleslaw, 7 1/2 gallons
bean salad, 8-9 gallons
pasta salad, 15 pounds dry pasta plus fixings

Merry Christmas. If budget allows, please make a donation, a nickel or dime per pguest, to support this site. Thanks.
