Yield: 30 3" stalks
Calories: 53kcal
Materials
- 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 oz. packet ranch dry dressing mix
- 1/2 tsp. pepper
- 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup cooked bacon crumbles
- 10 stalks fresh celery, washed and dried
Instructions
- Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, mayonnaise, ranch dry mix, and pepper until thoroughly blended.
- Fold in cheddar cheese and bacon crumbles.
- Refrigerate cream cheese mixture for minimum of 30 minutes. Can be made day before.
- Prepare celery: wash and dry stalks. Cut off both ends, then cut each stalk into 3-inch pieces. (Or cut in half for larger portions.)
- Using a butter knife, fill celery stalks with cream cheese mixture. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve, and refrigerate any leftovers. Enjoy!
Notes
I can usually get my 10 stalks from just 1 bunch of celery. If for any reason you run short of celery, spread on crackers.
Or, mix up your appetizer tray by intentionally splitting the cream cheese mixture in half: half on crackers, the other half on stuffed celery.
