Welcome

Welcome to Kay's Village Recipes! Some believe the heart of the home is in the kitchen, I believe the kitchen is the heart of the village. It takes a “village” to live life to its fullest and it has nothing to do with geography or how large or small a town you live in. My “village” is inhabited by family members, dear friends, co-workers, and the occasional visitor who is in my life for a short period of time. Each one of these people has a profound impact on my emotional wellbeing as well as the quality of my life, and all have one thing in common…they all love to eat, and I love to cook for them.
On this blog you will find free, family recipes for: homemade soups, breads, apple pie, cakes, candies, snacks, casseroles, main courses, side dishes, appetizers, breakfast, home-style cooking, and so much more.

Frickadillys

Original Recipe from:  Virginia Bowers-Johnson

This is one of my mother’s catering menu items that also graced her dinner table over the years.  I never knew they had a name, other than meatballs, until I went through her recipes a couple years ago.  I guess Frickadillys sounded better on a menu.  Very quick and easy to make.  Leftovers are great for lunch the next day or freeze for an easy dinner on a hectic day.  Enjoy!

Ingredients

1.5 pounds Ground Beef
1 small Onion, diced
1 Egg
3 slices Bread, in crumbs
½ cup Milk
2 cans Cream of Mushroom Soup
8 ounces Water

Directions

In a medium mixing bowl tear Bread slices into crumbs, add Ground Beef and Onion.  Set aside.

In another medium mixing bowl combine Egg, Milk, Soup, and Water.  Whisk until smooth. 

Add liquid mixture to the mixing bowl with the meat.  Mix thoroughly.  (Note:  I prefer to mix by hand)

Form into small balls.  Fry in a large skillet over medium-high heat to brown.  Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 45 – 60 minutes. 

Serve over noodles.
