Ingredients

• 6 celery stalks
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 small carrot, finely grated
• 0.25 red bell pepper, finely diced
• 1 green onion, finely chopped
• 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.125 teaspoons salt
• 0.125 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the celery stalks thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Trim the ends and cut each stalk into 3 equal pieces, approximately 3-4 inches long.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, grated carrot, diced red bell pepper, chopped green onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 3

Using a small spoon or a piping bag for precision, fill the hollow part of each celery piece with the cream cheese and vegetable mixture, pressing gently to ensure the filling stays in place.

Step 4

Arrange the stuffed celery pieces on a serving platter. Garnish with additional green onion or red bell pepper, if desired.

Step 5

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled snack.
