What are you defrosting?
You don't have to defrost anything except raw meat and even that can go straight into the oven if you want to season it after it's cooked. If you have a frozen pizza/pot pie just throw it in a pre-heated oven.
Also, you can defrost quickly with a microwave.
Soup, beans, pasta. Also, for cooking: frozen meat. Veggies are also difficult, yeah there's flash frozen veg that can work but that requires cookery too.
Store made frozen pizzas and pies taste like crap and are expensive. Homemade ones take a lot of time.
Soups are still good especially with a crock pot but I get so sick of soup.
I'm lucky because I have an Italian food shop near me that makes homemade uncooked pizza. I can take it home and cook right away or freeze. Same with the chicken pot pies.
The main thing I'd say is get in the habit of making giant servings and freeze them. I will make 5 liters of stew/chili/soup on a Sunday and freeze it in pint containers. A different recipe the next Sunday. Now I've got 20 meals sitting in the freezer.
It takes as much effort to make a big meal as a small one; make a meal big enough for four people and freeze three portions.
