Hi guys!
I just bought a full thing of celery and used maybe two stalks for a chicken salad (a delicious curried chicken salad I found on here that uses greek yogurt instead of mayo) and I have no idea what else to do with the celery. I'll mix some into tuna but I don't know what to do with it before it goes bad. I don't really like ants on a log, if I did it'd be gone so fast!
thanks for any ideas

Chop it up and freeze it and use it next time you're making a soup stock.0

If you have a juicer, make it into juice - I do 2 stalks celery, 5 apples & 2 oranges - it's a weight loss juice and its good - good luck0

Ah! I didn't know it froze well. That is exactly what I'll do, thanks so much. That was easy!0

Thanks km. I don't have a juicer unfortunately. I suppose I could make a whole bunch of bloody caesars though, eh? I wouldn't mind that one bit.0

It doesn't freeze well unless you're going to cook it. It won't be good for chicken salad or anything.0 -

Okay! I'll just be sure to cook it. Soup stock or perhaps I can convince my boyfriend to make his spaghetti sauce soon.0 -

The Cajun cook with it. Almost everything starts with onion, bell pepper and celery. You can start your soup with onion, carrots and celery.
Food Network has a buffalo hummus recipe that is great with celery.0 -
you can always use it as a snack.. I like to put cottage cheese in the middle or some peanut butter0

Mix some of your favorite herbs or spices into plain greek yogurt and use for celery dip. Great snack.0

I only use celery for soups and stocks.0

The cottage cheese sounds really good. I am going to have to try that.0 -
Celery is great added to pretty much any Asian stir fry. If you like celery you might like celery kinpira. Dice it and add it to salads?
Also if you wrap your celery in a paper towel and put it back in the bag that'll make it last a little longer.0 -
top it with natural peanut butter..makes a good snack0

Bloody Mary... Mmmmm.0

I am a BIG BIG fan of celery with a little bit of peanut butter spread on it, throw on some raisins or some dark chocolate chips. It's a great snack.0

OP said she doesn't like ants on a log, which is celery with PB and raisins.0
