Stewed Celery

The stalks of celery not suitable for the table as a relish may be utilized in the following manner: Wash carefully and cut into small pieces; boil about 3/4 of an hour in salted water and drain; serve with a cream sauce, or season it with salt, pepper and sweet cream.

Stuffed Peppers

Wash and remove the centers from 6 large bell peppers; prepare a filling as follows: One quart of bread crumbs, 1 small onion and 2 medium sized tomatoes, chopped fine; season highly with salt, pepper and melted butter. Fill the peppers with the stuffing; set them closely together in a baking pan, half filled with hot water to which may be added a little soup stock or gravy; cover them with another pan and bake about 3/4 of an hour, removing the cover for the last 5 or 10 minutes to allow them to brown. The filling may be varied by the addition of chopped meat, grated cheese or parsley.
