Fresh Crab Cakes

These tasty crab cakes are so low in both fat and calories, that you can eat two or three along with a baked potato and vegetable or salad and still stay well within your meal plan limits! While cracking & cleaning the thawed crab yourself takes an additional hour, it goes quickly if you use a pair of utility scissors to slice along the shells. I bought mine at the local grocery store - already cooked and frozen. On sale at half the usual price, it was MUCH less expensive than canned and my crab pieces were so huge I had to cut them up for this receipe! The receipe can be halved easily for a smaller number of servings. Left over cooked crab cakes can be frozen for future use.
