Cooking for two!

Wow sounds like my husband and my husband does not like leftovers either (if there is any).
Just work with the 3 main groups of a meal: meat (protein), starch (carbohydrate), and vegetable. Last week I made chicken parmesan which I know my husband likes but paired it with sauteed spinach/garlic which I haven't made for him before. No spaghetti b/c I wanted it to be a lower carb meal but you could add that in. My husband loved it. Now I also recently made a casserole that he did not like and ended up throwing most of it away.

I guess the point is just keep trying. Mix up old recipes with new recipes. Ask your husband to be honest about your cooking and if he likes/dislikes something have him tell you specifically what it was to help you fine tune your recipes.

Also, get your husband in the kitchen! I work alot and sometimes my husband has to cook dinner (he does not cook but he is learning). He enjoys it and I think it helps him realize putting meals together is not easy, Good luck!
