Grandma's Stuffed Celery

Recipesfull introduces to you: Easter Recipes. (Grandma's Stuffed Celery). 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!
