Ingredients:
4 large celery stalks
8 teaspoon peanut butter or almond butter
1 cup red grapes
32 thin pretzel sticks, preferably whole wheat
Preparation:
Make a slice or two on the spine of each piece of celery, if necessary, so they stay upright on a plate. Spread 2 teaspoons peanut butter or almond butter into each celery stalk. Place the grapes in a row inside the celery, pressing them lightly into the nut butter. Position 8 pretzel sticks along the side each the celery “canoe” to look like oars for the grape “rowers.”
