​You do not need big Brussels Sprouts to do this,the leaves are from the plant itself.My first year in a tiny garden trying to grow them,searching for info on raising them.I found out they need to be trimmed,then I find a recipe for Brussels Sprouts sauteed with Garlic and Onions,Wheels start turning I want them stuffed so lets get it going.

Plants I took a dozen leaves


Clean with hot water


Make your meat mixture




then blanch the leaves  to make them pliable



Roll them like Pigs in a Blanket


use a tooth pick to hold it together


Cook for 20 minutes or so


These are tasty


add a little extra sauce and dig in


Thanks for looking

The only thing I would change is, the amount of filling I think it was to much.Will be trying these again in a few weeks.

I was pleasantly surprised myself,trimmed the plants leaving enough leaves on top,to make some more before harvesting.Thanks for the point I appreciate it

I can just see it right now - stuffed Brussels sprout leaves will be the hottest new menu trend. Too bad you can't patent that idea

Great use of the plant. Looked very tasty
 
I can now laugh at myself. When I first read the thread topic, I though Richie was talking about the Brussel sprout and the little leaves off the little heads. I have had those leaves fried but could not imagine some one with enough patience to stuff those little bity leaves and pounced on the thread to learn........... Obviously my synaptic response was a bit slow that day!

<Chuckles> Stuffing those little bitty leaves with a grain of rice and a granule of finely ground burger. LOL  
 
At first I was thinking like Foam   How in the He- double hockey sticks do to roll up those tiny leaves ??

Looks mighty good to me
