Steps
- 1Begin by rinsing the celery with cold water and then use a swivel-blade vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer of the stalks, making sure to eliminate any strings. Proceed to slice the celery into thin strips that are 2 to 3 inches in length and no wider than 1/4 inch. If using a food processor, attach the large shredding disk and ensure the celery pieces are cut short enough to fit horizontally into the feed tube. Aim to obtain approximately 1 1/2 cups of sliced celery.
- 2Begin by peeling the avocado. Cut it in half and then slice each half lengthwise into sections. Proceed to cut the sections into thin slices, ensuring they are no wider than 1/2 inch.
