Thanks for catching that Molly. It's a 1/2 Cup. It was actually on my printed recipe that I keep in my recipe folder, but I must have missed the line when typing!. Anyway, I edited it in. Let me know how you like it. The bowl has always ended up empty in my house. Happy Thanksgiving :)

Scanning this recipe, the instructions mention celery, but the ingredients list doesn't.
