You could do four options, but prep time goes up. We found that two options were relatively easy to execute on a Sunday afternoon. To make things even easier you could utilize the same starch or veggie with different proteins.
Tons of options out there, and the fitness community has been doing this for decades. They have gotten pretty creative and there are plenty of tips and tricks out there to minimize the prep time.

Yup, that's what we do - we make 2-3 meals ahead of time on the Saturday or Sunday, freeze the ones we aren't eating right away and leave one out for the Monday. Each meal usually lasts 2-3 nights, then defrost another one.
You get good healthy meals for less, but it does involve a sacrifice of time on your part.
