This was really good. I also added thyme, and added a little garlic powder. I used vegetable bullion instead of chicken as I am a strict vegetarian. It was for this reason I also used soymilk instead of regular milk. Something else I did differently was I had already steamed some celery, so I just threw that in when the onions were done.

    This is a nice recipe. I added a few items for flavor, and instead of 4 cups of milk, I used 2 cups of low-fat organic milk and 2 cups of organic soy milk and it worked out fine. I also added chopped bell peppers, 2 garlic cloves, and some seasoning salt for taste. It came out great. It's a really nice and healthy use for celery.

    What a nice recipe!! It tastes good as is, and it will taste wonderful in the chicken dish I'm about to prepare. I added 2 sliced cloves of garlic to the saute mixture as well as 1/4 t. kosher salt and 1/2 t. dried thyme. It took 6 large stalks of celery for me to get 4 cups. I pureed everything - the flavors mix so much better that way. Delicious! Makes 4 1-cup servings
