Fran is hosting a graduation party for 100 guests and is serving a buffet that includes, among other things, meatballs and hot sausage and macaroni-and-cheese. She asks, “How much?”

I’d plan on 25 pounds of meatballs and sausages. That works out to 1/4 pound per person and then figure 1/2 cup of mac-n-cheese per person.
