This round soft cheese with celery and lemon is a truly irresistible and different main dish.
It is quick to prepare and pairs well with boiled chicory seasoned with oil and garlic.
A recipe I thought of to use up the soft cheese, which unfortunately I sometimes forget in the fridge and often goes bad. This way, I decided to use it all at once.
I must say that as someone who loves cheese and also raw vegetables, I liked it a lot.
I enjoy eating raw celery stalks, which are also very healthy as they are high in fiber. Meanwhile, celery leaves can be cooked and used for broth or other dishes.
