Is there any other use for celery other than putting in salads?

Celery has a strong taste, that goes well with mild tasting foods like cream cheese and peanut butter - you can stuff them into the groove as in the picture on the previous answer. You can spice up the cream cheese with a variety of additions to make it even better. I remember my stepmother made a cream cheese stuffing that had chili powder and walnuts - everyone really liked it - a treat over the holidays. What follows is a cream cheese and blue cheese celery stuffing:

southernfood.about.com/od/.../r/bl40323u.htm

It is great in soups, those with tomato bases and those with cream bases. You can use the leaves as well as the stalks. There is even a cream of celery soup from Cambell's Soups. 5 soup recipes folllow:

Cajun food would not be cajun food without it. See Paul Prudhomme's recipes for jamalaya, gumbo and lots of other dishes:

topchefs.chef2chef.net/recipes/chef-paul/

... and we wouldn't have the classic Bloody Mary without it, would we?

I was going to mention the Bloody Mary myself. But that example in the photo, gosh. That's pushing the limit.

Actually, yes. When I was in preschool, we would have ants on a log. Basically, you spread peanut butter on a piece of celery and then put raisins on top. It's pretty good. (Thanks for bringing back some old memories too)

I think celery is an excellent snack. But it is also amazing in homemade gravy or stuffing.

Here's an excellent recipe for gravy. This is delicious.

If you are casseroling meat, then adding celery to the pot, along with onions carrots etc certainly adds to the flavor of the dish

You can put celery in soups, stews, chop it real fine and put in tomato based sauces, eat with peanut butter. I'm sure there are many other things you can use celery for but those are some that I have seen and tried.

Yes, as a peanut butter and celery snack. This is an old-standby. Spread the peanut butter in the groove the length of a washed celery stick - and enjoy!!!
