Celery Boats Party Food
These have always been a hit served among other foods or served as an entrée. They are easy to make, take little time, and you can vary the filling.
I wanted this lot to be vegetarian however I have also made them in a larger quantity using smoked chicken.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 0 minutes

3 tbsp parsley
½ tsp lemon zest
¼ red onion or shallot, chopped finely
Chili flakes (optional)
Few grapes, chopped (optional)
Method
Chop the parsley.
I always use this gadget as it is quick and chops nice and fine
Put the cream cheese, lemon zest, parsley, and onion in a bowl.
Add some salt and pepper, chili flakes and grapes, if using.
Gently mix (if the cream cheese is too hard, put it in the microwave for about 15 seconds).
Spoon into the cut celery, push down a bit and place on a serving dish.
Decorate with left over grapes, or shredded carrot.
