The Recipe Box Swap

I finally decided to participate in the recipe box swap over at Randi's blog. She has been doing it for months now, and whenever the first thursday of the month rolls around I always forget about it. So here it is...

Sweet Citrus Celery

I think I actually found this recipe on one of those free recipe cards you can find at the grocery store.

4 cups sliced celery

1 cup chopped red bell pepper

1 cup green onions, chopped

1 tbsp. grated fresh gingerroot

1/2 cup orange juice

1 tsp. cornstarch

1 tbsp. light brown sugar

2 cups cooked long-grain brown rice

***Drizzle a large skillet with extra virgin olive oil. Add celery, pepper, greenonions, and gingerroot. Cook about 5 minutes or until celery is crisp tender. In a small bowl combine orange juice and cornstarch; add to vegetables along with brown sugar. Cook until mixture thickens and boils. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Serve over rice. Serves 4

Enjoy!
