Potluck Food Planner

For a potluck, plan one shared dish for every 8 to 10 guests and enough combined food for one main, two sides, and one dessert serving per person.

Select several foods and PortionPal will combine their quantities into one event shopping plan.

Kids count as about 60% of an adult portion. Every item uses the same PortionPal calculation engine as the single-food tools.

Choose mains, sides, desserts, and drinks
