CABBAGE, WATER CHESTNUTS 'N CELERY CASSEROLE
This is a very tasty way to serve cabbage mixed with the celery. Do not over cook the veggies you want to have a crunch left. I often do this dish ahead and just pop it in the oven 25 minutes before dinner. I cut the soup back to 1/4 cup but it depends how saucy you like things

CELERY CASSEROLE
Celery is the star in this dish instead of being a supporting character! Sometimes, I use roughly crushed chow mein noodles instead of crackers and just enough butter to crisp the almonds.
