Apricot & Ricotta Stuffed Celery

If you enjoy celery, ricotta, and apricot, you might enjoy this very easy appetizer combination. I thought it was nice, but not exciting. The full recipe below should serve four to six. I reduced the amount of celery to three ribs because there were only two of us. The recipe is from the Taste of Home web site: (http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/apricot-ricotta-stuffed-celery)

Ingredients

- 3 dried apricots
- 1/2 cup part skim creamy ricotta cheese (This type of ricotta is normally found in the cottage cheese area of the dairy section in a supermarket.)
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 5 celery ribs 

Directions

Chop apricots with food processor. Add ricotta, brown sugar, orange zest, and salt. Blend these ingredients, then stuff the mix into the celery. Chill until ready to serve.
