I have been craving the cool crispiness of fresh celery. Now teamed with creamy chunks of tangy blue cheese, it's so simple and so pleasing. Serve with rice pilaf or polenta cutlets. Adapted from Moosewood Restaurant New Classics cookbook. Enjoy! Recomended cheeses are Maytag, mellow Danish, and Buttermilk Blue.

- 8-10 celery ribs, cleaned
- 3/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled (about 3 oz. cheese)
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Directions
1
Cut the celery crosswise into 1/2" thick pieces to make 4 cups sliced.2
Place it in a pretty bowl and sprinkle in crumbled blue cheese.3
Add the salt, pepper, and olive oil and toss well.4
Serve chilled. Enjoy!

Isn't it funny how the simplest ingredients make the best recipes? I loved this salad for the ease in the making and the crispness of the celery next to the creaminess of the blue cheese. Used Clemson Blue Cheese (the best, in my opinion). Made for Beverage Tag.

I served this lovely & easy-fix salad as part of a salad-relish dish, mainly to add a veggie + color & texture to a simple meal of oven-baked fish fillets & parslied potatoes. It was the simplest part of the meal, but the star of it. It is creamy-rich & packed w/flavor + crunch. I added red onion as suggested by another reviewer & liked that a lot. Great recipe, Sharon. Thx for sharing it w/us.

Beautiful and simple. I added balsamic vinegar (just a splash) and think it adds good contrast. I think adding red onion and walnuts would really step it up as well.
