I'm not a fan of Sandra Lee, but I think shortcuts- not quite like hers- are okay every once in a while.. Also, to the VA hostage (?) - you've got to be kidding me. Half of her shortcuts actually take longer than doing the damn thing from scratch, and most of them contain excessive sodium or fat or hydrogenated badness and all that other bad crap. You'd almost be better off eating KFC since they don't use trans-fats anymore. Hah. Rachael Ray may be annoying to listen to, but at least her 30 minute meals are actually quick and don't force you to use all this pre-made crap (most of the time).

Perhaps you are looking too hard at what is cheating and too little at what is not. The world works in mysterious ways young Timothy.

That isn't the sort of ish you can just whip up. If cream of mushroom is cheating, then why is chicken broth - which is much easier to make - excused?

Sandra Lee is a recent discovery of mine and I love her show! Working full time and then coming home to have to fix dinner for 2 kids and spouse means taking short cuts. Period. Otherwise it would be take out everynight. And by take out, I mean Taco Bell, McDonalds or KFC. Choose your poison and your battles wisely! ok, obviously you all don’t have kids.
