Jeepers, it depends what kind of food you like to eat. Are you a meat + 3 veg person, or a "heat & eat" or a "takeaway" person? Do you like a variety of flavours? personally, I keep pasta + sauce, steak sauces, usually have some steak in the freezer, we keep asian premade sauces for stir frys and laksas. We also like Mexican, so have taco shells and refried beans. You might need to be a bit more specific about what you like to eat!

Buy some chicken and steaks and freeze them.
Also, buy some rice or noodles. Then all you need is a can of veggies and you have a meal. It's easy and delicious. Add dinner rolls and you have gourmet dinner.
