Made this just because I was looking for something different. Huge hit. If you are feeding young people the meat sauce is necessary. We loved it, but will probably just use a good marinara the next time. The leftover filling made the best meatballs I have ever had.

This is very interesting...sounds like it would really taste good using zucchini instead--but then I am not a celery person...but do you think the celery flavor is really critical here?

Hi loubaby, I'm not a celery person either but the dish in the end is very nice. I make zucchinis and eggplants with the same filling and I cook them in the oven with tomato sauce - but then I don't eat much meat. I think with the tomato sauce it's great whichever vegetable you use.

HA! that's so funny! I had no idea it was traditional! I wonder if there is an Italian expression for "one man's ceiling is another man's floor"?!

Maybe but I don't know the meaning of the expression "one man's ceiling is another man's floor" because I'm not english.

What a fascinating recipe.Who woulda thunk it- canneloni filling in celery?! For me,since it already has a meat filling, i think i'd aso really like it if, instead of a meat sauce, it had a beschamel and simple marinara over the celery. I love it that you put the celery pieces together and give your guest a wonderful surprise as they cut into it!
thanks so much for this!

Thank you Le Bec Fin.
Bear in mind that this is a TYPICAL dish, so I wrote the recipe as is made in Florence.
