Salad with chicken and mushrooms

🥗 How to calculate the ingredients for a salad for a large company

Are you planning a New Year, birthday or corporate event? The main mistake when purchasing products is to buy them by eye. As a result, either there won’t be enough salad for the guests, or there will be a whole bowl left that will spoil.

Our calculator solves this problem. It works according to a proven technological map of a classic salad (Chicken + Mushrooms + Cheese + Egg) and helps you find out the exact weight of each ingredient.

💡 Important: The calculator displays weight of ready products. Remember that chicken fillet loses about 30% of its weight when cooked, and mushrooms lose up to 50% when fried. Buy raw foods with a reserve!

How to use the calculation:

  1. Enter the number of guests: Enter the number of people who will eat the salad.
  2. Select serving size:
    • 150 g - if there are a lot of other snacks (buffet) on the table.
    • 250 g is a standard hearty portion for a home feast.
    • 350 g - if salad is the main dish.
  3. Get the list: Copy the final list of products and go to the store with it.

Useful tips for cooking

⏱️ Boiling ingredients

To ensure that the eggs do not overcook and the fillet remains juicy, it is important to monitor the time. Use our online timer for the kitchen to time the ideal cooking time.

💰 Holiday budget

Once you know the weight of the food, you can estimate the cost of the entire banquet. To quickly calculate amounts, use a simple calculator.


Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

❓ Which recipe is used in the calculation?

We use the classic proportions of puff salad: Chicken fillet (30%), Fried champignons (25%), Boiled eggs (20%), Hard cheese (10%), Onion and Mayonnaise (15%). This is a universal base that can be supplemented to taste (for example, pineapples or nuts).

❓ How many eggs are in 100 grams?

One medium egg (category C1) weighs about 50-55 grams without shell. Our calculator automatically converts weight into pieces, rounding to the nearest half egg.

❓ Is it possible to change the proportions?

Of course! This tool gives you a basic calculation so you have enough food for everyone. If you like more cheese or less onion, feel free to adjust the list to your taste.
