For working parents, weeknight cooking can be a second job of its own. And in the midst of back-to-school season, a flurry of new schedules and school projects and ever more hectic nights, getting dinner on the table for the whole family seems an especially daunting task.
Fortunately, there’s no shortage of advice out there. A whole world of working parents and home cooks, as well as recent cookbooks like Pam Anderson’s new edition of “How to Cook Without a Book,” her classic guide to cooking by heart, or Carla Snyder’s “One Pan, Whole Family,” a compilation of quick dinners for the recipe-loyal, provide plenty of busy weeknight inspiration.
