Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

When you’re throwing a dinner party or gathering that involves a large number of people, it can be easy to overcook or overorder food and end up with a lot of waste. Catering professionals have a basic rule of thumb for how much food is needed to keep guests from going hungry. For appetizers, think six large bites per guest, plus a few easy side snacks like nuts or crudites. For the main dish, go with 6 to 8 ounces of protein and 3/4 cup of two to three sides for the main meal. If it’s a hungrier crowd, add two more serving sizes to the overall order.
