GRANDMA'S STUFFED CELERY



Grandma's Stuffed Celery image

My grandma always made stuffed celery at Thanksgiving and Christmas. As kids, we were always so hungry before the holiday meal we would sneak and get a piece of celery to curb our appetite. It was nearly all gone by meal time and we always got fussed at with hint of a grin from Grandma. Now I never have holiday meals without it!

Time 30m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 bunch celery - large stalks washed, trimmed, and cut into 3 sections
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese at room temperature
¾ cup chopped pimento-stuffed green olives
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 pinch salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Thoroughly dry each piece of celery with paper towels. Mix the cream cheese, olives, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Using a knife, spread a generous amount of cream cheese filling down the center indentation of each celery piece. Serve immediately or refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Choose tender celery stalks: Look for celery stalks that are firm and have a bright green color. Avoid stalks that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Cut the celery stalks into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Blanch the celery stalks before stuffing: This will help soften them and make them more pliable.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Get creative with your fillings! Some popular options include cream cheese, tuna salad, chicken salad, and egg salad. You can also use vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and bell peppers.
  • Be careful not to overstuff the celery stalks: You want the filling to be snug, but not so tight that it bursts out of the celery.
  • Chill the stuffed celery stalks before serving: This will help them set and make them easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Stuffed celery is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many different fillings to choose from, you're sure to find a combination that you'll love. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give stuffed celery a try!
