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.

Xaina’s Chocolate Banana Pie

Original Recipe from:  Kay Johnson-Tomblin

Xaina is one of my favorite village kids.  She is the daughter of my dear friend, Jeanie, and has a special place in my heart.  She is the reason Jeanie and I became such good friends.  When I first met her, she would often hang out in my office after school.  We quickly became good buddies and there wasn’t much I would say no to her about.  So, when Xaina asked me to make her a chocolate banana pie, I put my thinking cap on and created one for her.  I will have to admit…it’s a good pie!  If you like chocolate and bananas, I’ll bet you will like this pie too!  Enjoy



Ingredients

1 Graham Cracker Pie Crust
1 box Vanilla Pudding
1 box Chocolate Pudding
3 Bananas, sliced
Whipped Cream



 
Directions

Prepare the Vanilla pudding according to the package directions for pie.  Slice the bananas into the pudding and pour into the pie crust.


 
Prepare the Chocolate pudding according to the package directions for pie.  Pour on top of the vanilla pie filling.



Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until set.  Top with Whipped Cream before serving.

Note:  You will have the best results if you use cooked pudding, however, instant can be used if you are in a hurry (like I was when I made this pie).
