RECIPE BY: William (Uncle Bill) Anatooskin

Brussels sprouts are quite often referred to as "Little Cabbages" and some persons did not like them until they tried them breaded. These Breaded Brussels Sprouts are an excellent vegetable dish to be served with your main course. The crumb coating gives them a very unique taste.

    I have been searching for a brussel sprout recipe and this one turned out amazing! I don't even like the darn things and I wanted to eat the whole pan. I did cut down on some of the butter to make it lighter. Still yummy.

    Yummy! I made this with breaded tilapia so I just made extra breading (169764). As I said in that review, I used oats instead of bread crumbs to get more oats in my diet. I thought it turned out just as good.

    Uncle Bill - these were delicious! Made your recipe exactly as shown - nothing needs to be changed! I was able to make these ahead of time & then just popped them under the broiler 5 minutes b4 dinner. Even my picky DH liked these (and he's darn lucky I even shared them!). I'll be making this dish often - thanks!
