A bowl of creamy blue cheese celery soup.I discovered this soup when looking for ways to use up an excess of celery. It makes an elegant lunch or first course for a special dinner. It would have been wonderful with a slice of crusty bread or croutons.

The ingredients for creamy blue cheese celery soup.
 

Steps:

  1. Chop entire head of celery in very short sections. Larger sections may leave long strings in your soup, even after cooking and blending. Chop onions and potatoes, and mince garlic.
  2. A head of celery being chopped.

  3. Heat butter in a stockpot. Add vegetables and sauté until softened but not browning, about 5 minutes.

I will have to try this soup. I love celery, and I love Blue cheese. I cook for one, so I suggest that if you want to make a smaller batch that you chop the celery, use enough for your recipe and freeze the rest on a cookie sheet and once frozen store it in a ziplock bag for more batches. I have been freezing celery for a long time to add to my vegetable soup.
