Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
3/4 cup fresh breadcrumbs
(made from crustless French bread)
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup thinly-sliced green onions
1 tsp grated lemon peel
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 lb crabmeat well drained
3 tbl olive oil
4 cup mixed baby greens
1/4 cup bottled citrus vinaigrette
Instructions:
Instructions: Line baking sheet with foil. Mix first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Add crabmeat and stir gently to combine. Shape mixture into eight 1/2-inch-thick cakes. Transfer to prepared sheet. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook crab cakes until bottoms are brown, about 4 minutes. Using spatula, carefully turn cakes over and cook until second sides are brown, about 4 minutes longer.

Divide greens among 4 plates. Drizzle with vinaigrette. Top with crab cakes. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve.

This recipe yields 4 servings.

Comments: These crispy cakes are jazzed up with cayenne and lemon peel. Add purchased potato salad, sliced tomatoes, and a seeded baguette. A strawberry tart from the bakery would make a refreshing summer finish.
