Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 120

Ingredients
  

  • 12 medium celery stalks, trimmed and cut into 3-inch sticks (about 24 sticks)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup toasted chopped walnuts, plus a few extra for garnish

Method
 

  1. Trim celery stalks and cut into 2 to 3 sticks each, about 3 inches long. Pat dry thoroughly.
  2. Beat softened cream cheese, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth, about 1 minute. Fold in the 1/4 cup walnuts.
  3. Spoon or pipe the filling into the celery sticks, top with reserved walnuts, and serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, assemble these right before your guests arrive. If you need to prep ahead, store the unfilled celery and the filling separately in the fridge; stuff them no more than 2 hours before serving and keep uncovered so the celery stays crunchy.
