Crab cakes just sounded good this weekend! These were fairly easy to put together, just some chopping of the green bell pepper and green onions. When I was in the store getting the ingredients I went to the fresh seafood counter and asked for some fresh
crabmeat and the lady said it was not very popular and they no longer had it available, so I had to buy the
crabmeat in the little containers (it was still real
crabmeat NOT imitation). The only mistake I make was over cooking the
crab cakes a bit, but they were not burnt and were delicious! So be careful that you take them out of the oil when they are still light in color.
We decided to make soups and foods that were fairly easy to chew this weekend because I had some oral surgery done on Friday and didn't know how much pain I would be in or what I could eat. Turns out the surgery went very well and I am able to eat just fine (right side of mouth for now) and the weather was cold and rainy so it was perfect for soups! This is a great recipe and even if you don't like artichokes I think you might like this, very flavorful, really good and easy to make! I had never had artichoke soup before and I really liked this soup! Enjoy!
