I've done a few whole30s and we still have a few whole30 ish meals pretty much weekly. I'd highly recommend checking out anything your library has to offer. I like the WellFed books (2 mostly, 1's ok, but NOT Weeknights). Nomnompaleo also has a new book I really like. In terms of pure survival, batch cooking is where it's at. Veggie prep ahead of time. Be prepared to be completely overwhelmed with the amount of veggies in your fridge, amazed at how quickly you go through them, and how often you need to grocery shop for them. Nomnompaleo also has several months worth of meal ideas another blog called Kitchen Stewardship has an excellent details breakdown of everything they ate for the month. Variety is obviously key, but I definitely settle into a routine for at least breakfast and lunch - ie, breakfast is still often leftover dinner veggies cooked with fried eggs. I can only do so much meal planning, some things need to go on autopilot. Also, individual cups of guacamole have saved me many a day, one of those Wholly Guac cups and some sliced cucumbers or carrots and I can pretend to make it another day!

ETA: my absolute favorite W30 complaint recipe, that we still eat weekly, is the salmon patties out of WellFed 2. My Dh's is the chili out of the same book. They've both been in regular rotation for years!
