Lynne, I hope it's the DW and not the DH, our grandkids love hamburger helper. We buy some sauce from our favorite Italian restaurant, freeze it in amounts for two or four, four when DGKs are along. I make a batch of machaca(Mexican style shredded beef) and freeze that.
Really easy but sounds chee chee is Chicken Taragon. One skillet meal and start to table is about 20 min, can be done ahead and warmed in a pot. Recipe on request. Swiss Pork Chops with Mustard sauce, recipe also on request. Maybe 40 minutes, 15 to assemble and 20-25 simmering. Both those served on rice. We do Uncle Ben's and one cup is enough rice for two dinners for two.
There are a lot of recipes in the archives for this forum. Make searches using different parameters. The DW and I share kitchen duties but on the road she doesn't mind cooking, at home she really dislikes cooking.
Another easy one but it requires a campfire is a hamburger patty, sliced potato and onion, season to taste, wrap in heavy duty aluminum foil, shiny side in or out, you decide, I've heard arguments on that for over 65 years. We have several flat grill sheets and use them on the fire, can be done on the stove.
The old(50 years at least)McCalls Cook Book and Better Homes and Gardens, Cooking for One or Two both have great recipes.
