Is there a day of the week where you have a couple hours to yourself? If so, spend a couple hours cooking and then freeze what you make so can pop it in the microwave for when you want to eat it.

Myrecipes.com is a really great site to check out. They have a "quick and easy" section of meals that require very little cooking and time to make. They are also running a weekly article called "One List, Five Meals" (here is an example of what it is) that you might want to check out. Look at the other weeks for the "One List" too. It can give you ideas on how to build meals for the week on a few key ingredients.
