How much spaghetti is enough?!


Question:

How much spaghetti is enough?

I'm feeding 5 people, i like my sauce meaty so I'll probably go with slightly less than a pound of meat...but i'm not sure how much dry noodle to boil.


Answers:
2 standard (16oz) boxes should do. My dad uses that much and it feeds 4 with a "healthy" serving.

you need 1 pound of meat at least and a good 8 oz. of pasta to feed 5 people. If you are using less meat, add more veggies.

It depends on the sort of people eating it. Are they big eaters? Are you eating more than just the spaghetti? Are you all grossly fat?

One pound box should be enough.

well, i'm of italian decsent and in my family you always cook more than usual of everything! i would cook 2 pounds and but make sure your pot is large enough or you'll have gooey pasta . you can cook in two batches(with fresh water for second batch) . If you have left-overs,just coat in alittle oil and freeze in zip bag.
