Wow, that is one amazing girl.  Here's how I'd figure it:  Vegetables tend to shrink when roasted, so you'll need more per person than the serving size on the package.  I think I'd figure 4-6 ounces of vegetables per person, depending on how many side dishes there are.  Using that calculation, she'll need 400-600 ounces total, divided among the different vegetables.
