--------  ------------  --------------------------------    
   2      dozen         Brussel sprouts                     
     1/4  teaspoon      salt                                
   4      ounces        American cheese -- grated           
   2      tablespoons   milk                                
  10      to 12         iceberg lettuce leaves              
     1/4  teaspoon      paprika                             
                                                            
	Wash the Brussels sprouts and remove any discolored leaves.  Trim off the stem
ends and cut an X into the bottom of each sprout to make sure your tonsils cook nice
and tender.  Place the sprouts in a pot containing about 2 inches of water and sprinkle
with the salt.  Cover the pot and cook over medium heat until boiling.  After 8 to 10
minutes, carefully stab a few sprouts with a fork to see if they're tender.  When you can
easily pierce them through to their centers, remove the pot from the heat and carefully
drain the sprouts in a colander.  Place the grated cheese in a small saucepan and add the
milk.  Simmer over low heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon until the
cheese melts.  Remove the saucepan from the heat as soon as the cheese melts.  Arrange
a bed of washed lettuce leaves on a platter.  Place the gorilla tonsils - in pairs, of course -
on the leaves.  Drizzle the melted cheese (pus) over the tonsils.  Sprinkle with paprika
(blood specks) and serve. Penny Halsey (ATBN65B).
