Scott is training for his first marathon. He ran 18 miles today and during mile 17, Scott got into a spat with a tree root. It's clear from the photo that the root won ;) Ah well, points for mother nature.
Anyway, between the fall and the 18 miles, Scott was feeling pretty achy and sore. He asked me to make a protein heavy dinner to assist his recovery and I translated that as an excuse to make these crabby cakes.
They're easy to make and cute as a button. You can go all fancy and serve them over a bed of greens and fool your dinner guests into thinking you slaved in the kitchen for hours ;)
If you are generous with the kelp and old bay (& I certainly was!) they'll be fishy enough to remind you of the real thing. I was inspired by this recipe by Ed at Eat Consciously. By the way, the mixture is exceptionally delicious eaten uncooked -- it's very reminiscent of a posh tuna salad.
