As a guide allow 4 ounces of potato salad per person.

4oz x 20 equals 80oz, that's 5 pounds of potato salad.

Some folk may take a little more, some folk won't take any as they might not like potato salad.

Therefore 5 pounds should be enough for 20 people.

Four ounces is considered the normal serving. 20 pounds should provide a nice serving for 80 people. If they are hungry you may want to go more!

Five pounds should be enough. A serving is considered 4 ounces, about half a cup in volume. The number of sides they can choose will determine more or less.
