What can I do with them besides a simple reheat? Soup?
I'm thinking about marinating them with a couple other veggies for a
marinated veg salad.
Whadday think?

Ordinarily IMHO, Brussels Sprouts require a very short cooking time
unless they are to live up to many people's opinions. Chuck them out
would be my advice tho' Julie Sahni has quite a good recipe that might
work, using them in a South Indian lentil stew (Chauk Gobhi aur Sem
Sambaar.)

Yes to the marinated veg salad idea.
I'd add scallions or another mild onion.
I'd add chopped parsley.
Carrots are always a welcome addition to anything marinated.
For the dressing, oil, vinegar, and brown mustard.

How about a fritatta?
Bubble and Squeak! Bacon, chopped sprouts, onion, mashed potatoes, cheese,
formed into a patty and fried. Throw a fried egg on top, if you like.

Add to boiled beets, then toss it all in the trash
You could fry them with egg noodles...

A lot depends on how "cooked" they are. If they're fairly tender, I'd make
a cream of Brussels sprouts soup.

If the grill is going, to warm them up, douse them with olive oil and
put them on the grill for a while....

Cut them in half so the dressing can reach the middle. I'd put them together
with some tomato wedges, good black olives, very thin red onion slices, and
parboiled carrots, and make a quasi-Moroccan dressing with lemon juice,
olive oil, coriander, cilantro, garlic, cumin, and honey.
Of course, I'd probably say something completely different tomorrow. Or even
six hours later today.

A friend of mine constantly rants about this glazed brussels
sprouts recipe she has. She claims even kids like them (which
seems hard to believe, but her kids are really hearty
trencherwomen). I can't get her recipe for a while, but here's
one online that claims you can make the sprouts ahead of time:
I assume you can make it without the carrots without disturbing
the artistic integrity of the dish . . . .

sliced in 1/2 or /1/4 and used in a salad or as a salad.
One of my favorite snacks is leftover veggies with salad dressing.
Dimitri
Put them in a batch of pickled beets.

Smartass.
I pickled some last year -- an R&D project for a nephew-in-law. They're
good, but these are cooked.
Thanks, D. I'm leaning that way.

Hmmm. Thanks, Mike. Alex knows I don't wish to disturb the artistic
integrity.
Oh baby, oh, baby!. Thanks.
Sorry, Toots. The only bubbling I detect is my gut responding to the
very idea.
Hmm, a thought, thanks, although HWSRN wouldn't be interested and I want
these gone by Sunday noon; I'm leaving town on Monday morning for the
week.

I can do that.
Sounds pretty tasty, Lia. Thanks.
I'm leaning that direction. Have tomatoes.
Thanks, Lynn.

My pleasure - It may have started for me many years ago with my Greek
Grandma and canned spinach (cold) dressed with lemon juice & I don't
remember what else, maybe chopped egg.
Dimitri
Dry them in the sun and use them for practice or hitting over water hazards
at the golf course.
hahaha! You contrarian, you.
Add enough sweetened cocoa coulda made Belian Kim Chee Truffles.
I started liking Brussels Sprouts when I discovered that they actually
taste good when barely cooked, so the idea of re-cooking them doesn't
sound like a good one to me. However, after reading here about them
being good when roasted, perhaps you could try roasting them enough to
heat them through.
If they are cooked till mushy, then soup is their only hope.

That would work. You could also sautee in butter till they begin to
brown. That might still bring out hidden sugars.
IME sprouts are much sweeter after a frost in the garden.

Yeah, I know. The grower didn't seem to. Now she knows. :-) I wonder
if the Hmong farmers grew brussels sprouts in Laos. Probably not, huh?

I'll give it consideration, Ed. Considered. Nah.

That's simple Barb.
Chop them up a bit and sub them for the cabbage in a nice pot of
borscht.

You'll see that happen here the day Hell freezes over. :-) :-P

I halved them and commenced to making a marinated vegetable salad for
dinner tonight with visiting Sister Irene. She and I are going on a bus
trip to Indiana on Monday morning. What the hell was I thinking when I
said I would do this with her?
The salad veggies were the brussels sprouts, green onion, carrot chunks
( lightly cooked), green beans (lightly cooked) green pepper squares,
cherry tomato halves. I first squooshed on the sprouts that lemon
that's been on the counter for a week. Then followed a drizzle of
lemoned olive oil from last year's trip to Italy (Jayzuzz, I've gone
from Tuscany to Elkhart, Indiana in a year. This is wrong.) Then I
sprinkled on some red wine vinegar and some sherry vinegar. Ground some
pepper over it. Sprinkled a titch of sugar. Added some soy sauce.
Added some sesame seeds. Left it to its own in the fridge for a coupla
hours until dinnertime. It was pretty good. Oh, I forgot the cucumber
chunks.
