stalks into small pieces with sharp knife. Serve on lettuce leaves with French dressing.
For a pleasant addition to fruit salad, fill tender celery stalks with roquefort cheese, and lay one or two on each plate of salad.
Pepper and Cheese Salad
Remove top and seeds from a sweet green pepper. Scald it with
boiling water, letting it stand in water about ten minutes. Mix
soft cream cheese with chopped nuts, or with tiny cubes of cooked
beets and fill pepper with this mixture; chill well, cut in thin slices
with sharp knife and serve on bed of head lettuce with French
dressing.
Apples can also be used (with cheese and nuts) by removing core without breaking the apple.

Unit, 1 gallon. For lesser amounts, measurements to be divided
accordingly.
