I do feel you. Not that it is ideal, but what I've been doing lately is two or so times a week I cook up a quadruple batch of something - for example, right now I have a huge batch of chili verde stewing - which I then freeze. Currently, my freezer is filled with:

cuban black beans (vegan)
curried chickpeas (vegan)
chili verde (beef)
rice and lentil loaf (vegetarian)
beef stroganof (beef)
ground cooked buffalo meat with mixed veggies (to add with whatever, rice or pasta)
black bean, chicken sausage, and corn stew (chicken)
minestronie (beef, in the stock)

then, if I'm able to cook, I cook, but if not, I have plenty of things I could have instead that are reasonably healthy, didn't cost much to make, and I don't have to run out and get something.
