Stocking the freezer before birth of DC2

I really want to better prepared this time round, with a freezer full of delicious food to eat once DC2 arrives. We had an expensive few weeks living off M&S ready meals after the birth of DC1. We're now living overseas, so that won't be an option this time.

DC2 will be born in the summer. We live in a hot country, so won't really feel like heavy casseroles, soups etc. Would love some ideas for meals that I can freeze in advance. I plan to have lots of salads / cold meats / cheeses for lunches but would like slightly more substantial evening meals. Some ideas I've had already: bolognese sauce; veg chilli; veg tagine; chickpea curry; quiche; some marinated chicken breasts.

Yes and if you can get them, I often freeze in tin foil trays (bought off ebay) that you get with takeaway, then you can just chuck in the oven and less washing up.
Never thought of freezing risotto ...
