If they exist, that sure isn't evidence of such. The recipe written for idiots(ground chicken in the meat section?!?! thanks Rachel!). The corn is going to ruin the texture of the dish, it'll be like undercooked onions in your pasta or bbq sauce. And flour tortillas is the wrong choice. They will fall apart and get mushy. Just like enchiladas, you need to use corn tortillas.

Lemony Chicken Recipe : Sandra Lee : Recipes : Food Network
But really, that isn't a fair comparison. We are not the audience for Sandra Lee. Really, we aren't the audience for Rachael Ray. But even a broken clock is right something something.

Are you sure that's a Sandra Lee recipe? It only has one premade item. And I wouldn't expect even an experienced chef to make lemon curd just for this recipe.
Your comment about not being the audience for Rachel Ray might have been my point. I still think the recipe has some very basic flaws, but I'll admit I went after it initially because it was Rachel Ray. I think we can (easily)do better than Rachel Ray. And it's better, as a habit, to just stay away from her altogether.
Wife was feeling sick last night, so she thawed some chicken soup, leaving me to make whatever. Stared at the fridge for a minute, pulled out some leftover biscuits, scrambled 3 eggs soft, shredded some extra sharp cheddar on top, and then a few dashes of cholula. Easier, quicker, and no need for a recipe. Versatile too.

One of the first real complicated recipes I ever tried was a Rachael Ray turkey meatloaf with wild mushrooms. It was pretty bad. But if I were to make it today I think I could make it much better. Really it is all about engaging people and getting them to cook real foo, which she does. So I have a hard time being too hard on her. Sandra Lee? Yeah, she is horrid. But she has a niche audience that goes for that kind of thing.

What was complicated about that recipe, Chaos? That's the prime reason I don't like her, she's cooking for idiots. You think I'd know how to properly scramble eggs or make biscuits if all I cooked were Rachel Ray recipes? I don't know if people picked up on this from the weight loss thread, but I like engaging my brain, even during leisurely activities. Rachel Ray is cooking by numbers.
Disclaimer: she maybe have upped her game in recent years, idk. Maybe she's making fancy shit now.

I haven't tried or eaten either of them but just from the ingredient listing Abe's meatballs sound much better.
Quit poopin on my Mexican Lasagna! I don't use the corn, I don't like corn, and I don't use tortillas, I use regular lasagna pasta and I add the mascarpone and cream cheese. Ok so maybe I don't really follow that recipe at all, I just used it as a guideline and added my own flair. Your still a hipster.

The sauce and the meatballs are fucking delicious.
I don't trust any recipe that calls for "italian seasoning". That's just fucking lazy.

I make huge batches of this stuff and freeze it by buying huge cans of marzano tomatoes from Costco when they have them.
