This week I've had my eyes opened to batch cooking. We were a bit skint (not poverty line skint) and working opposite shifts to each other, so for time and money we bought in ingredients for lasagne and chilli and made a massive batch of each on Sunday.

All week I've been taking the chilli to work and the family have been microwaving the batches when Wifey finishes work.

Cost me 50% of my usual food budget this week, and we still got in all the usual stuff for lunches with fruit and such.

Downside was Wifey overcooked the lasagne, so it can be a gamble I guess, but I will certainly be making a massive batch of Chilli in the future
