Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces celery stalks
- 60 grams bleu cheese crumbles
- 120 grams cream cheese, softened
- 30 grams sour cream
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the celery stalks, then trim the ends and cut each stalk into 3-inch pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine the bleu cheese crumbles, softened cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy. If needed, use a fork to break up larger chunks of bleu cheese.
Using a small spoon or a piping bag, fill the hollow centers of the celery stalks with the bleu cheese mixture, smoothing the top as needed.
Arrange the filled celery sticks on a serving platter.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley (optional) for a pop of color and added flavor.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
