Alien brains is my daughters name for brussels sprouts. I dont care what they are called so long as they get eaten. With this recipe they got eaten. Even by my husband. This does take a little pre-planning.
Ingredients:
2 lbs brussels sprouts
1 cup italian dressing or 1 cup catalina dressing
1 lb meatballs, homemade or 1 lb meatballs, storebought
1 (10 ounce) can tomato soup
0.5 (10 ounce) can water
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 -3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. day one steam or boil brussel sprouts until done (about 10 minutes).
2. place in a bowl or zip lock bag with the salad dressing. I used about half of each.
3. stir or turn as often as you remember.
4. allow this to marinade overnight or at least 6 hours
5. the next day place meatballs in pot add remaining ingredients and simmer for about 30 minutes.
6. strain brussel sprouts and add
7. cook and additional 5 minutes until warmed through.
8. serve with a side of pasta and salad and you are all set.
