Celery casserole recipe with toasted almonds and water chestnuts.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups sliced celery, (sliced 1-inch)
  • 1 can sliced water chestnuts, drained (5 oz)
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/4 cup diced pimiento, drained
  • 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted*
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Preparation:

Cook celery in sated water until just tender but still a little crisp, about 8 minutes. Drain and combine in a bowl with water chestnuts, soup, and pimiento. Pour into a greased 1-quart casserole dish. Combine bread crumbs, almonds, and melted butter; sprinkle over the casserole. Bake at 350° for about 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
Serves 4 to 6.
*To toast nuts, spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in a 350° oven, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes. Or, toast in an ungreased skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden brown and aromatic.
