Do you do bulk cooking and if so what do you cook and freeze? I'm looking for other ideas.
I often make him soups but I do them fresh.

Re: bulk cooking
Yes I do bulk cooking, but that is more by default than any serious planningI live on my own, and if you want to do anything like decent cooking you end up with a largish amount
For example, if you buy a cabbage and a bag of carrots they will last for ages, and you usually end up having the same meal for day after day, and it becomes a bit of a race to see if you can eat things before they go off
The alternative is yo buy two carrots, three mushrooms, and so on, which immediately marks you down as a sad old man
So if the veg & salad are becoming rather manky I chop it all up and throw it all into the slow cooker with lentils or beans and a can of tomatoes
I have that for one or two meals, and the rest I freeze in one meal portions
