Marinated Celery Salad
This refreshing marinated celery salad is crisp, light, and full of bright flavors. Fresh celery is tossed with a tangy vinegar dressing, aromatic herbs, and a touch of olive oil, creating a simple yet delicious side dish. The marinating process softens the celery slightly while allowing it to absorb the flavorful dressing, making it a perfect accompaniment to grilled meats, sandwiches, or light meals.
