How much pasta salad per person?

It' s a subjective question.

A serving size is typically considered to be 1/2 cup of cooked pasta.

The USDA recommends 6 - 11 servings per day of grains (including pasta)

with 3 meals per day containing grains then 1 - 3 cups could be considered per meal, but this is dependent on the size and activity level of the person eating it as well. A portion size is not a serving size. A small person weighing 120 lbs. may only have a portion size of 2-3 servings or 1 - 1.5 cups, where as a professional football player weighing 250 lbs. might eat a portion of 6 servings or 3 cups per meal.

Typically, when I make pasta, I expect a person to eat approximately 2 cups If it is a main dish and 1 cup if it is a side dish. I hope this helps.

The adequate measurement of pasta for a 1 person serving is 100g. To simplify it, you would measure one serving cup, and that is equivalent to one portion.

How do you make pasta salad for 50 people?

You need approximately 150 grams of cooked (i.e finished) pasta salad per person, depending upon what else they will be eating. (If they're not eating anything else, probably closer to 175-250 grams of finished pasta salad per person). Dried pasta tends to weigh 2.5-3 times it's initial weight when it's cooked. This means that you need around 23-30 kg of uncooked pasta total, depending on how much of the pasta salad will be veg and sauce, how hungry you're expecting people to be, how much other food they're being fed etc... Good luck.
