Pot Roast, Beef Stroganoff (?sp). I'ld be tempted to try chicken and dumplings. I know most of those are old standards, but they can each be dressed up to be interesting.
Also, we make large batches of stuff on the weekends and freeze them as single servings. We have lots of these now: stews, currys, sausage gravy, lasagna, kibbeh, chili, and so on. During the week, we usually only need to make rice. We defrost what we want, nuke, serve with rice and salad.
We don't eat together, either, but I do chat while he preps his (he gets back late, and I prefer lunch to dinner).
