Celery stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, blue cheese, and herbs.

Ingredients:

  • 2 bunches celery
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
  • heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dillweed or 2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh or frozen chives
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • salt and paprika

Preparation:

Trim celery and cut ribs into 3-inch pieces; wash and dry with paper towels. Beat together cream cheese, blue cheese, and just enough cream to make the mixture the consistency of very stiff whipped cream. Fold in dillweed, chives, and caraway seeds; add salt to taste. Spoon into celery cavities; sprinkle with paprika. Chill thoroughly. If desired, use a fancy pastry tip and press mixture onto celery with pastry bag.

Forget the 3 inch piecesNovember 27, 2008By valdo450
"Just a comment.....since I was a youngster my job was to make the stuffed celery at every holiday meal......and I followed Mom's directions to the 'T'......which involved cutting the celery into small pieces and then stuffing........several years later and now married.....my new wife watched as carried on my holiday tradition and with dismay said.........why don't you stuff the whole stalk.......and THEN cut them into smaller pieces................duh.......made so much sense!"
