<s>[INST] I am new to cooking. I have guests coming over. How do I know how much food to cook? I usually cook for 1 person and there will be 5 of us in total. [/INST] You could start by multiplying the amount of food you usually cook by five.  Additionally ask your guests if they have any dietary requirements or allergies.</s>\ <s>[INST] Are there more things I need to think of when cooking for 5 instead of 1 [/INST] You may need to give yourself more time to cook. Additionally, make sure you have enough ingredients for the extra food.</s>
