Do you want a meal that you can make lots of in advance?

You could try a fish chowder of some sort - they're pretty simple, and I could dig up a recipe if you like.

One thing I do a lot is buy bags of individually packaged tilapia fillets. Take one out the freezer in the morning (or whenever - it takes about half a day, though you *can* cook them from frozen it is never as good)) and thaw it *in the fridge*. When you get home, crank your oven up to 450, coat each side of the fish with a little olive oil (I usually do this by pouring a little oil in the bottom of the pan and just dragging the fish through), coat with spices of your choice - I personally like either lemon pepper or Caribbean jerk spice, or cajun spice in a pinch. bake for about 9-10 min, until done. Eat. Prep time is about all of 2 minutes - it almost takes longer for the oven to heat than to cook the fish ;p Simple but tasty!
