In your ~/.ssh/config (if this file doesn't exist, just create it):

Host *

    StrictHostKeyChecking no

This will turn it off for all hosts you connect to. You can replace the * with a hostname pattern if you only want it to apply to some hosts.

Make sure the permissions on the file restrict access to yourself only:

sudo chmod 400 ~/.ssh/config
