surely there is an error in today's word of the day example "esta receta esta facile .Se puede hacelo rapido"

receta is feminine - should n't it be "se puede hacerLA rapido "

??

I would say "Esta receta es fácil. Se puede hacer rápido/rápidamente" or "Puedes hacerla rápido/rápidamente", you can't use "se" and "la" in the same sentence. - Cordobesa, Apr 10, 2012
^Oh, good point, you are right! You can´t use passive AND the pronoun there... - missy8888, Apr 10, 2012

No, it is correct.

In the second sentence, the "lo" refers to what you are making (the food), not the recipe itself. And since you do not specify what you are making (torta? pollo relleno?) or its gender, you use the generic "lo."
