I made 4 small cakes - considering there isn't a whole lot of binding, these stuck together pretty well!

I liked the crispy breading the best - I used panko bread crumbs which stay really crisp!

Mock Crab Cakes (modified at the stove with my co-workers C & K!)

  • 4 ounce mock crab flakes
  • 1/4 cup egg beaters
  • 1 tablespoon stone ground mustard (I don’t like mayo!)
  • 1 small chopped red pepper
  • 6 tablespoons Panko bread crumbs
  • 1.5 teaspoons vegetable oil (.5 in the crab mix, then 1 teaspoon in the pan mixed with Pam for the fry)

So this made 4 cakes at approximately 347 calories, 12 fat and 39 carbs.  Oh, and I doused them with Tabasco on my plate!

with 1 cup of my low fat lobster bisque (now its all gone!)

The two good parts about not being able to work out because of my cough is:

  1. I get to cook at work!
  2. I get to read more blogs!

I have 15 minutes left of my lunch break.  Come back tonight for Mystery Meal Monday!  I didn’t go to the store so  I have no idea what to make.  What are you having?
