Servings: 8

Prep Time: 15 min.

Ingredients

  • 3 to 4 celery stalks, diced into 1/8-inch cubes
  • 1 red pepper, diced into 1/8-inch cubes
  • 1 to 2 tsp. celery seeds
  • 3 to 4 tbsp. mild salsa
  • Dash black pepper
  • Crackers or slices of bread
Tip: Try to use the lighter-colored celery stalks you find towards the center of the bunch. They are less stringy and tough--much easier to chop and eat.

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Kids can wash and dry the celery stalks and red pepper. Parents can trim off the leaves and ends of the celery, and then dice the stalks and red pepper into 1/8-inch cubes or smaller.

  2. Step 2

    Place the celery, red pepper, celery seeds, and salsa in a medium bowl. Stir until well combined. Add black pepper to taste.

  3. Step 3

    Serve on crackers or your favorite bread.

Tip: You may want to chop the celery and red pepper and measure out all of the other ingredients in advance. When you're ready, invite your child into the kitchen to let him put everything into a big bowl. Part of the fun is tasting each ingredient before you add it.
