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.

Simple Sloppy Joes

Original Recipe from:  Lucy Griffin-Bowers

This is my Grandmother’s recipe.  I remember this recipe from my childhood.  When we would visit Grandma in Ohio, we would often have the big family get together.  With so many mouths to feed, Sloppy Joes were a good menu item.  Inexpensive and easy to make with the bonus that the kids would love them!  The menu would usually include potato salad, baked beans, coleslaw, and an assortment of dessert treats.  Simple food to prepare, but oh so comforting…even all these years later.  Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 pound Ground Beef
1 medium Onion, chopped
1/2 cup Ketchup
3 tablespoons White Vinegar
2 tablespoons Water
1 tablespoon Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Dry Mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 teaspoon Salt
Hamburger Buns
Directions

Cook meat and onions in a large skillet until meat is browned; drain off drippings.  Stir in next 7 ingredients, and heat thoroughly.  Serve on warm buns. 

Yields 4-6 servings.
