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.

Roasted Corn Salsa

Original Recipe from:  Jason Maxlow

This recipe comes from blog follower Jason Maxlow.  I met Jason earlier this year shortly after starting this blog.  When he forwarded this recipe I thought it would make an excellent entry for a new section of Kay’s Village Recipes…The Grilling and Smoking Section.  We all have wonderful memories of summer meals made on a grill.  Friends and family gathering on the patio or at the park sharing good times topped off with a great meal.  This salsa is perfect for a barbeque.  Serve it with some fresh tortilla chips and….Enjoy!

Ingredients and Directions

4 ears of Sweet Corn, husk on.  Seared on all sides until the husk is blackened.  About 5- 8 minutes per side.  Cool, remove husk and chop.
4 Peppers (red, yellow, green – whatever you prefer) seared until blackened.  Cool and peel the charred skin off and dice.
1 large Spanish onion, grilled until caramelized, diced
Chopped Cilantro to taste
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Tomatoes, diced
Juice of 2 Limes
2Jalapenos, diced (or more to taste)

Mix in bowl, let marinate and feed.  Makes about a quart or so. 

Could do well with some Garlic, Roasted Garlic and/or diced Chipotles
