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.

Aunt Lillian’s Strawberry Pie

Original Recipe from:  Lillian Bowers-Leasburg

Aunt Lillian is a woman of grace and poise; a gentle woman with southern charm and style.  When you walk into her home you will feel “at home”, the house actually feels like it’s giving you a big hug.  You will sit around her kitchen and have a good helping of Aunt Lillian’s cooking and relaxed conversation.  If you are lucky, she’ll make this pie for you.  Make one the next time you’re having company and let the conversation flow.  Enjoy!

Ingredients and Directions

3/4 cup Sugar
2 tablespoons Corn Starch
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Water

Combine all ingredients and cook until thick and clear.  Add small package Strawberry Jell-o.  Cool 10 minutes.  Add sliced Strawberries (approximately 1 pint) to mixture.  Pour into baked pie shell.  Let cool in refrigerator until firm.
