Default Frozen meals?

Hi, Gang,

I'm going into the hospital for surgery next week. I'll be gone for
at least an overnight, and out of commission for a few days after
that. I want to leave frozen meals for James so that he doesn't end
up ordering pizza the whole time I'm gone. There's nothing wrong
with pizza; he just ends up eating pizza and hot dogs for every meal
if I am not home to cook and there's nothing easy in the house. He's
diabetic, and it's best if he eats more varied and wholesome foods,
in general. He prefers it, too. And I like cooking for him, and for
the rest of my family and friends.

What are you favorite freezable meals? Ideally, not hugely high in
fat, though that's not the most important thing. Most important
things are that it just has to be popped into the oven, and it's
tasty. Cheap would be a bonus, too, as we're kind of strapped, and
with a 60/40 insurance plan, that's not going to change any time
soon. Don't get me started on the state of health insurance in this
country. *deep breaths*

Anyway.

Yesterday, we had a chicken enchilada casserole from that batch I
made the other week, but those are gone now, so I want to put in at
least a couple things to tide the family over while I'm on my back
(and not in that nice way that we like).

Thanks in advance for your help!

In sober truth, nearly all the things which men are hanged or
imprisoned for doing to one another are nature’s everyday
performances. Killing, the most criminal act recognized by human
laws, nature does once to every being that lives, and in a large
proportion of cases after protracted tortures such as only the
greatest monsters whom we read of ever purposely inflicted on
their living fellow creatures. [John Stuart Mill, Utility of
Religion]
