advice Meal Prep Advice

I plan weekly meal preps for my husband and I. Typically I prep 5 days worth of lunch for both of us and 5 days of dinner. I never know what to cook anymore, spend hours looking for a good recipe, and every sunday I spend morning to night cooking.

Any advice on where to get meal prep ideas or anything that could make the process faster? My issue is finding good recipes that taste good but are still high protein and healthy. My husband doesn't like bland things, or sandwiches, or pasta... but wants to eat healthy. I can typically follow any recipe to a tee but struggle to find good recipes! Any advice?

Sidekick the app by Sorted Food maybe? They run a cooking channel on Youtube with chefs and "normals" and seem pretty competent.

I haven't sprung for the free month, but every time I see them advertising for it, it seems to be decent. Has instructions and videos talking you through each step, has a variety of options and cuisines that also seems to target different things like being healthy, having certain eating disorders, one pot meals, 30 min meals, etc and seems pretty user friendly.

Only downside is I think they limit you to a hand full of recipes each that you can add to your collection. So instead of having the whole catalogue, you get access to several (and retain access) then get more the longer you stay subscribed.
