Preparation

In a bowl, using a spoon, mash shredded cheese and cream cheese until blended. Stir in raisins.

Pat celery dry and cut each stalk crosswise into four pieces, each about 3 inches (7 1/2 cm) long. Spoon cheese mixture evenly into hollow of each celery stick, packing lightly.

Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Tips

Use your favourite shredded Canadian cheese in place of the Cheddar. Try Brick, Mozzarella or Monterey Jack.
