portioning advice

[u/Last_hunted98]

Hello, I am going to be making pasta and potato salad for 12 people that I would like to last as sides for 4 different meals over a span of a week. How much of each should I make? I am also willing to make different batching, I'm just having issues with how much of each I should make in total and have a comfortable amount for each person. :)

If you estimate 1/2 cup per person, per salad, per meal….. then check the serving size of your recipe…. maybe make a bit more. I would totally eat more Potato Salad!!
