Looking for some low calorie options to snack on at work, and thought I'd try celery! Although I'd have to ease into it and dip it in something first, so what would you recommend? :smile:

    Sometimes I'l dip veggies (not necessarily celery) in balsamic vinegar. Sounds weird, but I like it. I also like using green onion dip (using light sour cream).

    Weight Watchers Buffalo-Style Stuffed Celery

    1/2 cup(s) low fat cream cheese, softened
    2 Tbsp blue cheese, softened
    1/2 tsp minced garlic
    1/4 tsp table salt
    5 serving(s) uncooked celery, five large ribs cut into 4 pieces each
    2 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce, or to taste
    1 Tbsp chives, fresh, chopped (optional)

    Instructions
    In a small bowl, stir together cream cheese, blue cheese, garlic and salt until smooth; spoon about 1/2 tablespoon cheese mixture into each piece of celery.


    To serve, arrange stuffed celery on a plate, drizzle each with about 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (or let guests add their own by serving the pepper sauce on the side). Sprinkle with chives if desired. Yields 2 pieces stuffed celery per serving.

    Peach, mango, or pineapple salsa is so delicious on celery. I also like peanut butter and chipotle hummus. ;)

    Ranchaholic here. 1 2-cup container of Fage 0% fat greek yogurt and 1 ranch seasoning packet of choice. 10 cal per tablespoon. You can also make your own ranch seasoning (google it), and take out all the extra sodium etc. if you like. :)

    Lemon juice and a little olive oil is good. In fact, now I just squeeze a little lemon juice on - very low cal, and nice flavor with celery, green peppers and lettuce.
