  • 1 celery rib, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, divided

  • 2/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

  1. In a large saucepan, saute celery in 1 tablespoon butter until tender. Stir in the soup, mayonnaise, sour cream, onion, chicken, water chestnuts and mushrooms. Cook and stir over medium heat just until mixture begins to boil. Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese.
