How many cups of cooked macaroni is 8 ounces of dry?

[DavidC]

I'm trying to come up with a number of servings.

 

[Jonah]

Two ounces dry is one serving of pasta.

And two ounces dry, depending on the shape of the pasta, is about one half cup cooked.

So if you were going by the servings a nutritional would use - 8 ounces of dry pasta would be about 4, half-cup servings of pasta.

But people usually eat more than the half cup, so if you are trying to figure this out for a dinner plan and not a nutritional plan - I would count on at least one cup (or 4 ounces dry) per person, and possibly more if that is the main course.

I hope that helps.
