I've just pulled a few for dinner and they hardly seem worth it. Thats a tea spoon for scale.

I've got another 20-30 in a 10x12 bed. Should I leave them as is. Will they fill out or should I pull them, dig the area over and get something more productive in the space?

I don't want to leave them in there taking up space if they're just going to run to seed.

mine are also about as big  as yours, in my garden...so will look out for the answer :-)

If they're last years i don't think they'll get any bigger now they'll just run to seed. So out they come........you could freeze them to make leek and potato soup if you like it

.. I had a feeling that was going to be the answer  I did get them in late. The forecast is for rain all week so they have another 5 days to swell.

But then soup it is.

They look like what we call baby leeks in the catering trade. Still very nice to eat just blanch them whole for a few minute then a bit of butter on top with seasoning. Delicious!
