Lunch/Dinner ideas for DS and me?

I SAH and DH works 2-3 evenings a week so it will be just me and DS for lunch/dinner sometimes. What are some good and easy meals for just us? I have made pasta a couple of times for the two of us, but usually he will eat a sandwich and fruit and I will have something else. I need ideas!!!

    Chicken parm You can bread and bake your own or use a cutlet, sauce and cheese and bake. You could freeze ahead too.

    Meatball subs

    Potato soup

    Cheeseburgers

    Usually I just give Adam bites of whatever I'm having, plus a vegetable on the side.

    I'm saving this page, as I have had the same question!  I'm interested to see what ideas others have to offer.

    I do a lot of soups, stews, and anything else I can make in the crockpot before work days and have for leftovers. 

    Beef Stew - in the crockpot all day with beef, carrots, potatoes. DD loves it, especially the carrots. I add fruit and cottage cheese to her tray.

    Navy bean soup - also in crockpot or on stove - navy beans, cut up turkey kielbasa, carrots

    Chili

    Boboli pizzas (I want to try mini english muffin pizzas)

    Tater tot hot dish

    When DH is gone we will usually have pasta (my DH won't eat pasta...he's a weirdo!), enchiladas, soup and salad, breakfast or sandwiches.

    hot dogs and lunch meats with cheese and a fruit are usually dd's lunches...unless we are out with other moms. 

    sweet potato fries are also good.  frozen meals/meats are great too.  burritos. quesadillas are easy to make, throw some chicken in there for protein or beans even.  dd loves any kind of beans.  chili is easy with rice.  

    i struggle the most with lunch, which is why we end up with hot dogs and lunch meat.  also mac and cheese sometimes.  oh and cottage cheese.  you can even do eggs for lunch or dinner.

    stir fry some tofu also is a good easy one.  dd loves tofu in some kind of asian marinade.

    hope any of those ideas help you.  

    oh--my new one is pineapple chicken terriyaki in the crockpot.  its really easy.
