Twenty pounds.

Actually, restaurants use the rule of thumb that 20 pounds of dry pasta will yield 40 pounds of cooked product. It picks up it's own weight in water during cooking.

How many cups is 2 pounds cooked pasta?

Dried pasta doubles or triples in size as it cooks and plumps up with water as it becomes re-hydrated, so you would need to measure 1 to 1-1/2 cups. Fresh pasta does not plump up to the same degree. Look on the package, or ask the seller, to see how many servings you can expect per package.

It always helps in this type of question if you say it is a main meal or a starter- As a main pasta dish I would usually start with 4 oz of dry pasta per person. With the swelling of pasta and sauce, this will become 12-14 ounces of food per serving.-( So for 60 people, 15 pounds dry pasta) - Half this amount for a starter.

In my opinion, if your serving along side other food, you should assume 1 serving per person. One serving of pasta is generally 1/4 a cup of dry pasta. Therefore you should cook 17.5 cups of dry pasta, for your pasta salad.
