As many prior ratings have mentioned, cooking this dish for an hour is definitely not needed. However, it also depends on how tended you want your celery to be. I can't stand raw celery, but enjoy it if it's cooked so that it's very soft. So I cooked the dish for 25 minutes, then got two spoons and mixed the entire dish up and cooked for another 10-15 minutes. Everything came out perfectly cooked and delicious. I also used two cans of cream of chicken and a couple tablespoons of milk. Not only did this provide the dish with the needed moisture, but also allowed leftovers to be reheated without becoming dried out. I also like this dish because it has the potential to allow other ingredients to be added; ie: green beans, peas, etc. and also allows you to tweak the taste to your liking. I just used the basic salt and pepper and a little garlic salt but obviously any kind of spice could be worked into this recipe. You can't go wrong with a recipe that allows you to tweak the spices to your preference! This is definitely a recipe to file under the "comfort food" tab. It's a winner for us!
