meatballs, 1 pound per 3, 3 quarts sauce per each 10 pounds

lbs of ziti or pasta salad
For baked ziti, you would need 5-6 pounds of pasta, but for pasta salad, only 3-4 because of all the add-ins

tossed salad do 1/2 the amount for 100 on the plan for 100 page.

Do have good bread, about 6 pounds, and about 1 1/2 pounds butter.

If this saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a donation, maybe a dime or quarter per guest, to support this site. Thanks.
