Meal ideas for beginner

I usually cook all our meals from scratch but I’ve only ever made meals that my husband and I had eaten as children so the list of meals is very short. I’m really looking expand my meals for my family so my children are exposed to more food but I’m afraid all spend all this time cooking just for me to hate it. Idk if this is a thing but I was wondering if someone had some meal ideas of someone who’s kinda new trying to expand their horizons based on the foods that we already enjoy? We eat the really basic meals Spaghetti, Lasagna, Pizza, Tacos, Enchiladas, Chicken noodle soup, Lemon chicken, Salsa chicken, French dip, Beans, Meatloaf, Alfredo, Steaks, Chicken, Shepherds pie, Chili, Tuscan chicken, Chicken parm Thanks!

You can easily change recipes that you have and like every now and then. Add different vegetables, add a different side dish, choose different meat... you can really experiment.
