Alternatives to endless frozen pizza!?

My daughter is 2 and a half weeks old, any time for cooking has gone out the window and I've resorted to stocking up on frozen Pizzas as the ultimate food. They take 10 minutes, taste decent and it doesn't matter if they go cold! But it's getting a little out of hand, my partner and I are eating them literally every day, usually more than once. (i just put one in the oven for my breakfast. Yikes.) £I'd meal prep and freeze but I don't have a microwave!
Im 20 with minimal culinary skills, my partner struggles with beans on toast😂 I love cooking but I'm not skilled at all so it tends to take me a while even if it is a simple dish.
Any quick and simple meals that aren't awful after they've gone cold would be appreciated! I'm weaning myself onto a veggie low carb diet too, so anything along those lines would be even better.

You’ve had some great ideas here, but what will help you most is encouraging your partner to be responsible for preparing the meals for you both. That he can’t do beans on toast is a bit of a cop out, he needs to step up and take some of the load now you are parents.
Get Delia Smith’s How to Cook series and work your way through it together.
Babies are hard work, and looking after them uses a lot of energy, eating well will help you cope.
