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.

Barbeque Meat Loaf

Original Recipe from:  Virginia Bowers-Johnson

Yes, my mother really did have more than one meat loaf recipe.  While she was famous for her Motown Meat Loaf, this one is very good too.  This is her original meat loaf, the one from my early childhood.  Meat loaf is one of those family dinner entrees that makes enough servings for your dinner and there is enough leftover for tasty sandwiches the next day.  Serve with mashed potatoes, a vegetable and some hot biscuits fresh from the oven and you’ve got comfort food to warm you family body and soul.  Enjoy!

Ingredients

1.5 pounds Ground Beef
1 cup fresh Bread Crumbs
1 medium Onion, finely chopped
1 Egg
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
2-8 ounce cans Tomato Sauce (or one 15 ounce can)
1/2 cup Water
3 tablespoons White Vinegar
1 tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 tablespoons Yellow Mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce


Directions

Mix Ground Beef, Onions, Bread Crumbs, Egg, Salt and Pepper, and 12 ounces (1.5 cans) Tomato Sauce.   Form into a loaf. 

Combine the rest of the ingredients and pour over the loaf.  Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
