How can I reuse or recycle Brussels Sprout stalks stems?

Long time has this recycle-he asked Lizzy on "The great Brussels Sprout stem thing":

Sprout any ideas for great Brussels shaft things? Oh, and can you eat the leaves, sometimes at the top?

I think the easiest thing to do here would be first and foremost - reduce shoots first and foremost not buy, you are horrible;)

If you do eat but it can be cooked apparently leaves like cabbage. I had success less find out something about the shaft when... Other stems in the Brassica family (like broccoli) can be eaten, so that it does not surprise me wouldn't if you could - eat no recipes found for doing so. Got anyone any ideas?

As for other reuse ideas play apparently love chickens with you picking all the last bits of sprouts. Does anyone know if other small animals (rabbits etc) could nibble at the shaft?

Any other ideas?
