A serving should be about one cup. When trying to figure out how much to prepare, make sure you take into consideration what else will be served--if a ton of other dishes are served, you might want to use 3/4 of a cup as your serving size.

Typically a serving is measured to be about half a cup. However, if you are trying to figure out if this is enough, you should consider the appetites of those who will be eating it and the other food that is available for them. You may want to estimate 3/4 cup per person to be safe.

One serving of pasta salad is generally about 1 cup, however, if this is an event where there will be many options, a half cup per person may be sufficient.
