How Much Food Should I Make?

The amount of food you prepare will depend entirely on how many people you’re hosting. These are the general guidelines I use when cooking for a crowd. That being said, if you know that everyone wants a second serving of an appetizer, you can adjust the portions.

Starters

  • I recommend making 2 servings per person.

Dips

  • You’ll want to make about 3 ounces of dip per person.

Small Bites

  • 3-5 bite-sized portions per person is generally enough.

Drinks

  • I recommend making two drink servings per person, about 10-12 ounces.
