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.

Village Spaghetti Sauce

Original Recipe from:  Kay Johnson-Tomblin

I’ve been making this spaghetti sauce for over 30 years.  I used to make it with ground beef, but now make it with Italian Sausage.  This recipe is quick and easy.  Perfect for those evenings when you need something fast, but want great flavor.  It’s really just as easy as opening a jar, but much better!  Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 pound ground Italian Sausage or Ground Beef
1/2 cup diced Onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
16 ounces Stewed Tomatoes
8 ounces Tomato Sauce
3 ounce can Mushrooms (sliced or diced, whichever you prefer)
1 teaspoon Basil
1 teaspoon Oregano
1 teaspoon Thyme
1 teaspoon Parsley

Directions

Brown ground meat, onion and garlic and drain off the fat.  Add remaining ingredients.  Simmer 30-60 minutes.  Note:  the longer it simmers, the better it tastes.
