Remember this show? This recipe is too much fun. I got this last year from Recipezaar, it's recipe number 32216. The fun part is when people ask you what it is, and they will because it really is good. Very English of course. The Brussels sprout haters in your family will never know they are there. When you tell the kids the name of it they will love it.

Ooooo. This sounds good. I love fried potato and onion in bacon grease and I also love brussels sprouts. Unfortunately I'm the only one in my family on the last one. I love the 2 Fat Ladies though I was watching one of them make meatloaf on the cooking channel the other day and had to change channels. Something about watching her squish that meat ... My friend's husband is English and his version of bubble and squeak has sausage links in it. I enjoyed your post as always.
