This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the puree for extra flavor.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could use more seasoning.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the celery root puree was creamy and smooth. I served it with roasted vegetables and a side salad, and it was a perfect meal.
