Have you adopted batch cooking as part of your week? I hope so. This has saved me loads of time and has made our evenings as a family really enjoyable. 

Here are some more batch cooking recipes from this past Monday. I used some of the same recipes and some new ones too.

I also made the Lemony Dill Fish from the first batch cooking post. You can use spinach instead of lemon underneath fish when baking. You can find that recipe here.

Ingredients
  1. Your fajita rub goes a long way. Use it here on chicken breast - baked or fried. This week I cut up 6 chicken breasts, coated them in the rub and fried them in two batches using coconut oil.
Instructions
  1. Cook through (about 15 minutes). The smaller you cut the pieces the quicker they cook.
  2. If baking, simply add them to a baking dish and cook at 375F for 20 minutes. Use olive oil or coconut oil to crisp if desired.
