I can post a basic stuffed shells recipe that freezes well and can be scaled...
...up or down for family servings or individual servings.
I'll post if you think this may work.

Please try the creamy beefaroni posted by Olga
This is very good. Have done it a few times for my friends and family. And of course I always add more stuff to it. Good luck

Here's one for a great revamped Tuna Noodle Casserole from Chow...
I crave it ... hopefully her spouse won't consider the fresh jalapenos too spicy...and I use chopped cilantro in the topping rather than parsley. God, I really want to make this again now that I'm discussing it. I think the Old Bay seasoning also lends a distictive flavor to it.

REC: McCall’s Chicken and Vegetables Pot Pie
McCall’s Chicken and Vegetables Pot Pie
McCall’s Magazine, May 1978
Makes 8-10 servings
5 lb. roasting chicken, cut up
1 large onion, peeled and quartered
3 celery tops
3 parsley sprigs
2-1/2 tsp. salt
10 whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
8 small carrots, pared and halved crosswise (1 lb.)
12 small white onions, peeled (1 lb.)
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup milk
One recipe pie crust dough
2 tbl. butter, melted
Prepare chicken and vegetables: Wash chicken under cold water and place in large kettle with quartered onion, celery, parsley, 2-1/2 tsp. salt, peppercorn, bay leaf and 2 cups water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat and simmer, covered for 1-1/2 hours. Remove chicken from broth and cool. Remove meat from bones in large pieces - meat should measure about 5 cups. Strain the stock, skim off fat and measure. Add water if necessary to make 4 cups of liquid. Put stock in medium saucepan. Add carrots and small onions, covered, for 20 minutes. Strain. Liquid should measure 3 cups. In small bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Stir in milk until smooth. Add to stock in pan and bring to boil, stirring. Reduce heat and simmer 8 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Add chicken and vegetables. Turn into a round 3-quart casserole. Preheat oven to 400 deg. Roll pie crust on lightly floured surface to form a circle 1/2” larger all around than top of casserole dish. Place pastry on top of casserole, turning under edge and crimping decoratively; press to rim of casserole to seal as you go. With a serrated knife, make 5 or 6 slits for air vents in the crust. Brush surface of pastry evenly with melted butter. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden and the mixture bubbles through the slits.
