Try stews, chilis, etc.

Also, homemade chicken stock is one of my favourite things (boil a chicken carcass from the butcher with a halved onion, roughly chopped carrot, celery, some herbs, a little salt and pepper, bit of garlic, for a bit over an hour) and is super easy to do, freeze and then use as a base in a ton of recipes, or even just add some pasta and you've got a rough and ready chicken soup.

Cooking need not be difficult. By focusing on good, fresh ingredients you only need a couple to put together a great meal.

Also, great tip: Cook with spice (heat) and lots of flavour. You'll get full faster and feel satisfied longer.

Good idea is to package it in ziploc bags or small plastic containers. That way you don't have to defrost the entire pot if you just want to make a few cups of soup.

protip: homemade chicken stock makes an excellent base for risotto milanese!
