11/15/16 		If this is to be a meal-size serving for adults, at least 1 quart per 3 of soup as a base, and plan for the maximum possible. 60 quarts or 15 gallons for 180.
There are many different recipes from brothy to bean-thickened.

1 pound shredded cheese per 20
pint sour cream per 16
pound corn chips per 10-12 (some people will take as a side dish.
Cheaper and more authentic to cut corn tortillas into 1/4 inch strips and toast in the oven- and people don't eat as chips- 1 tortilla per 4

Bread 12 pounds per 100

Cookies, get small ones, 3-4 per person
Grapes, 1 pound per 10, get less
Apple slices, 1 ounce per person

Locally, when this is served as the meal, a side dish of Spanish rice (8 pounds dry per 100) and some kind of chopped lettuce salad is offered.

Your support for the web site and the remodel is always appreciated.
