How to Make Celery Salad

  • Begin by washing the celery thoroughly. Slice it into thin crescents for an enjoyable crunch.
  • Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the bowl with the celery, tomatoes, and onion.
  • In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well-blended.
  • Transfer all prepared salad ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Pour the dressing over the top and toss gently.
  • Just before serving, sprinkle the slivered almonds on top.

Notes

For extra crunch, consider adding sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds instead of slivered almonds.
