Just a ballpark figure - per NCHFP 18-20 lbs. of raw gets you 8-9 pints cooked. If a pint is 2 servings (like in our house) then you'd need approx. 20-25 lbs. of raw for 20 people.

But if you use the four 1/2 cup servings per pint (1 pint=2 cups) then theoretically you'd need 10 lbs. raw for 20 people. But I'd sure make extra! :)

Dave,

I've been following your threads for a long time. Once again you come to the rescue. Thank you!!!! Brilliant!

I agree about making extra. I think I could eat my own weight in chard with garlic.

Thanks again,
Erin

Erin, my father in law would have loved you ;-) Chard with garlic, kale with garlic, spinach with garlic....all table staples and all from his garden.
