I make up and freeze a lot of sauces, so all that needs doing is pasta cooking fresh and the sauce heated up. Pretty much anything in a sauce can be frozen. To freeze and re-heat and it taste nice you need a fairly high liquid content.
WRT on-line shopping. I did this. I also set up an order that was ready to process when I was overdue so I could come home, find no food, order everything with just two clicks. Well, when I was finally home with no visitors (almost a month later), I did just that and was so proud of myself. But wait a minute... I must have been craving more than I thought I was because all my favourite stuff was NOT what I was fancying. Cottage cheese with pineapple anyone?
Things we have in our freezer at the moment: butter chicken, lamb korma meatballs, chilli con carne, nachos, spag bol, chicken bol, cottage pie, soups. In the past we have had lasagnas (chick, beef, vegetable), sausage casserole. I've made up hamburger patties and just frozen them ready to chuck in the grill. Don't forget easy meals like sausages and mash.
Check out the taste website, you should be able to search for freezeable meals.
I also sometimes marinade things in the freezer which takes out a step. I also precut chicken breasts into strips and freeze them in meal size servings which saves a lot of time - easy to cut up some vegies and pour a stirfry sauce over the top.
