How Much Baked Ziti Do I need?!
My husband is turning 40 in November and I'm throwing him a big party. About 100 people are invited. Also on the menu are: baked beans, chips and dip, veggies and dip, ambrosia salad, sloppy joes, pasta salad, green beans w/bacon or green bean casserole, deviled eggs, potato salad, macaroni salad, cheesy potato casserole, and of course cake. There are a few other people who may be bring other food as well. We were throwing around the idea of a couple of hams or pork loin, but I kinda like the idea of baked ziti because it's a little easier.
Thank you sooooo much for your input!

well since your going to have a bunch of other dishes there i would guess about 1/2 pound to 3/4 pound for each person. so anywhere between 50 to 75 pounds. keep in mind that not everyone will eat it. but then again some will go for seconds and thirds.
Baked ziti is good but you already have a ton of cheesy, creamy dishes...they all sound delicious but I think you need a little more variety...and I think hams or a pork loin would be alot easier as you just cook it and carve it!!
