âThis healthful protein filling can double as a dip for sliced apples. I often make it ahead, so kids can help themselves to an after-school snack.â Dorothy Reinhold - Malibu, California Ingredients:

1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese |
2 teaspoons brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
5 celery ribs, cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces |
Directions:
