Figure on 4 to 8 oz. per serving size. It a;; depends on what is on your menu and how far it will stretch. If you are cooking pasta for instance you will need 2 lbs of Pasta to serve six people at least. Remember it is ALways;ways better to have more than not enough. I am a former chef.
Best regards,
and Bon Apetite!

figure 4-6 oz per person. (example: roast should be 24 - 36oz or 2 - 3 pounds of meat

4-6 oz. meat, 3-4 oz. vegetables and 4 oz. starch (potato or rice) for each serving!!
