Cooking for a family of any size can be time-consuming. And especially now — when you're making up to three meals a day for the whole family while you all stay home — you want to make each meal stretch as far as possible. That's where batch cooking comes in.
All 33 of these batch cooking recipes serve at least 4, and most serve 6-8 or even 10-12. Some use an Instant Pot or slow cooker to make more servings with less work. Spend a Sunday (or whatever day you have time!) in the kitchen making these big batch recipes, then simply heat them up and serve or turn into rollover meals throughout the week to feed your family.
