Serving Recommendations

  1. 1

    Individual Serving

    For an individual serving, prepare one plate per person, ensuring a balanced meal that includes protein, vegetables, and carbohydrates.

  2. 2

    Small Group

    When serving a small group of 2 to 4 people, prepare 2 plates. Ensure that each plate is served with a variety of options to cater to different preferences.

  3. 3

    Medium Group

    For a medium group of 5 to 8 people, prepare 5 plates. This allows for generous portions, ensuring everyone gets enough to eat while also providing some variety.

  4. 4

    Large Group

    When catering to a large group of 9 to 12 people, prepare 10 plates. This should accommodate seconds for those who wish for more.

  5. 5

    Extra Large Group

    For an extra-large group of 13 to 20 people, prepare 15 plates to ensure everyone has enough, while also allowing for leftovers if desired.
