Baked Celery

Baked Celery

This is a good way to "get rid of" extra celery...


Ingredients

Salt
Pepper, freshly ground
3 bunches Celery, tops trimmed, and halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
5 tablespoons Honey
2 cups Apple Juice
5 ounces Blue Cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup Walnuts, (optionally) toasted and chopped
1/4 cups Fresh Parsley Leaves, chopped

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Submerge celery halves (or quarters) in boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to a baking pan.

Drizzle oil, 3 tablespoons honey, over celery. Season with salt.

Pour apple juice into pan and roast until celery begins to brown, about 25 minutes.

Maybe throw the walnuts over it now if not toasted and give it a few more minutes.

Transfer celery to a platter.

In a small bowl, mix blue cheese, walnuts, and parsley. Season with pepper.

Spoon over celery, drizzle with remaining honey, and serve.
