Grandma's Stuffed Celery image

My grandma always made stuffed celery at Thanksgiving and Christmas. As kids, we were always so hungry before the holiday meal we would sneak and get a piece of celery to curb our appetite. It was nearly all gone by meal time and we always got fussed at with hint of a grin from Grandma. Now I never have holiday meals without it!

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some garlic and onion powder to the cream cheese filling and it was much better.
