My 2c worth is to find cookbooks with as little ingredients as possible. 4 ingredients books are good and so are student and kids cookbooks. Don't like something don't include it or swap it for something else. My husband doesn't like ham so I'll swap it for bacon. I rarely follow recipes to the t.

Usually I will remove something from the dish if it's something I know they won't like. But if that's the main component to the dish, then there's no point.

That's true but you shouldn't go without just because they don't like it. Those days could be a GYO day. Get your own. Sometimes I just feel like toast for dinner so the others GYO.

I don't live with my partner, so we see each other like once a weekend every 2nd week.
