Depending on what you are serving- a meat portion is generally 3-4 oz (more if you have larger eaters or not much in the sides). It depends on what you are preparing. If I was serving flank steak, some kind of rice dish and grilled zucchini, I would have 3-4 oz of meat, 1/2- 3/4 cup rice and 3-4 slices of zucchini. If I was doing pasta- (I generally toss my sauce into it) 1-2 cup portions plus salad. 32 oz sounds large- but if this portion is for more than 1 person it should be ok.
