Large Gatherings Food Amounts

I was asked the other day about this and finally had time to grab my lists and post them here. These come from several Amish cookbooks I have, each sharing bulk quantity recipes and food amounts for large groups.
If you are looking for a recipe, I suggest Ellen's Kitchen (she has a great sandwich listing, too!) If I have a recipe you can use, just ask and I'll look it up. I'm anything but cookbook sort around here ;o)
