You may think of the humble celery when making soups, sauces or crunching away on the sticks when you’re on a diet. But do you think of celery at other times? Perhaps not and so in the end you may happen to forget our dear green friend in the veggie drawer in the fridge.

But I do urge you, when you buy your next celery bunch, with all those good intentions of course, don’t waste any time making this pesto with the leafy bits. It is simply brimming with greeny deliciousness. 

This pesto keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 weeks (if it will last that long of course) and makes for tasty gifts!

Good Tip : Instead of buying a celery bunch just for yourself, share it with a friend so you don’t end up wasting!
