Recipes to use up celery

[ofwarren]

If you had a bunch of celery in your fridge to use up but you didn't want to make celery soup, crudités, roast celery etc, what would you put it in?

I bought a bunch to use some in a chicken casserole and don't want the rest to go to waste. It needs to be 'hidden' somehow though, and not the star of the show because DH and DCs don't like celery...
They eat it when they don't realise its there though

Anything in the slow cooker, it soaks up the taste and doesn't take too celeryish.

I chop it up and bung in the freezer for another day when I need something to pad out a bolognese or soup.

I put it in bolognese and chilli as a bit of extra veg

Yeah. Chop it up very small and use it in sauces etc.

I didn't even think about freezing!
I think I will do a bolognese tomorrow and then freeze the rest.
Thank you

Whenever you use chopped onion, add a bit of celery too. I'm not a fan of it by itself but it adds a good flavour to almost anything - casseroles, bolognese etc.
However I now have 2 heads a celery to use so am following this thread for ideas myself!
Soup maybe?

Chop it up fine and add it along with (or instead of) the onions and garlic at the start of any dish

Make batches of sofritto and freeze for when you are making a stew.

YY to freezing - and if you have carrot and onion lying around, dice that too and freeze them together then you've got a great base for pretty much any cooking to hand

Chicken and leek gratin. Delicious as a side and it’s the perfect time of year for it!

I can’t remember where I got my recipe from as I just make it up/do it by eye now, but I’m sure there’ll be loads if you search. The one I do uses stock, cream and cheese. I sometimes do just leek and celery, other times I put a mix of whatever green veg I want to use up.

Not chicken and leek (although that would obviously be delicious too)!!

Celery and leek gratin.

D’oh, I should have read the full OP! Got excited to share one of my favourite use-up recipes...

Never mind. Make the gratin anyway and have it all to yourself!

In bolognaise or chilli
in a tomato and lentil stew
celery adds the best flavours to any dish

Lasagne
Or freeze it

My kids like it in their school lunchbox or with peanut butter on it.

In a pilaf
gratin
barley or grain salad
sausage pasta

I just slather it in peanut butter and eat it raw.
