Using Celery Ends

I made a big vegetable tray this weekend for a Superbowl party we went to.  As i cut up celery I realized I could use most of what I was trimming off the stalks as I made celery sticks.


Here are the stalks with the top & bottom ends cut off.

I chopped up the tops and nearly all of the bottoms.  They filled this little Ziploc.  I tossed them in the freezer and I can use them next time I make Italian Sausage Soup or mix them into spaghetti sauce.

You can also freeze diced onion and diced bell pepper.  If they're getting old just chop & freeze so you can use them at a later date.

Love, Katie
