The couple are parents to Elisabeth, 19, Olivia, 18, Noah, 15, Evangeline, 12, Tobias, 11, Agnes, seven, Joseph, six, Florence, two, and two sets of twins – Charlotte and Isabelle, 16, and Leah and Erin, eight.
The bustling brood live in a six-bedroom house in Burghead, Moray, where they regularly document their hectic lives on their YouTube channel.
In a recent post, mum Zoe was in the kitchen preparing a dinner for her huge family.
Alongside daughter Isabelle, she cooked up her “really yummy” 12-person chicken fajita pasta.
She said: “I’m going to redo my chicken fajita pasta because I’ve worked out the measurements better”
“What doesn’t get eaten is great cold for the next day”, she added.
And like with all things, Zoe had to super-size the ingredient list to make sure there was enough to go around with the “super, super simple dish.
To make it moe manageable, the supermum split up the recipe into two six-people batches.
For each, she used five chicken breasts, 500g of pasta, four peppers, 250g of red onions, two packets of fajita mix, a 280g tub of light Philadelphia and a squirt of mayonnaise.
First up she cooks the chicken breasts in the oven for 40 minutes at 200C.
“Obviously you could put it straight in the dish, but I like less washing up” she admits.
Whilst the chicken cooked she sliced the onions and pepper, letting them simmer in a pan.
Once cooked, Zoe used a fork for pulled chicken to make it go further.
She then combined the chicken, peppers and fajita mix together in a pan.
After frying for about five minutes, Zoe created a hole in the centre of the pan adding the whole tub of Philadelphia.
Once everything is stirred, she simply combines the pasta with the sauce and adds some mayonnaise for a more “creamy” feel.
And almost all of her children like to get tucked into the home-cooked dinner.
The busy mum said that from start to finish including preparation, the meal took around 40 minutes to make.
For a serving of six, the ingredients cost £10, which is around “£1.60 per portion” the savvy mum concluded.
“It’s so easy to make and it tastes amazing”, she concluded.
