ON THE PLOT WITH THE 3 Mudketeers

BRUSSELS SPROUT CHALLENGE

Tony doesn’t like Brussels sprouts and he is not alone – it’s a common dislike. Steve and I decided we could convert him into a Brussels lover which was going to be no mean feat! We decided to pull out all the stops with our Cheesy Brussels dish, guaranteed to have any Brussels hater pleading for more.
