Original Recipe Yield 8 servings

Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter
4 cups thinly sliced celery
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 (4.5 ounce) can chopped mushrooms, drained
2 tablespoons chopped green bell peppers
1 (2 ounce) jar chopped pimento peppers
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup soft bread crumbs
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and cook celery until tender, about 5 minutes. Move celery aside, and mix in flour and salt. Pour in milk, and mix all ingredients, stirring constantly, until thickened.
Stir mushrooms, green bell peppers and pimento peppers into mixture. Mix in cheese, and stir until melted.
In a small bowl, blend bread crumbs and butter. Transfer the celery mixture to a medium baking dish, and sprinkle with the bread crumb mixture. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned.
