Ingredients

1 slightly beaten egg

1/2 cup plain yogurt (could sub with lo-fat)

2 tablesppons mayonnaise or salad dressing (could sub. with lo-fat)

1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley

2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoion prepared mustard

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 lb. crabmeat, drained, flaked, cartilage removed

1/4 cup finely crushed saltine crackers (I'll probably use Ritz)

Nonstick spray coating

1 medium tomato, sliced

Lemon wedges

Directions

In a medium mixing bowl combine egg, 1/4 cup yogurt, mayonnaise or salad dressing, parsley, worcestershire sauce, mustard, paprika, pepper. Stir in crabmeat and crushed crackers.

Shape crab mixture into five 3-inch patties.

Spray a shallow baking pan with nonstick spray coating. Arrange patties in pan. Broil 4-6 inches from heat for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Do not turn patties during broiling.

Serve crab cakes on tomato slices with remaining yogurt. Garnish with lemon wedges.

Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare crab patties; cover and chill up to 8 hours. Broil as above.

**I plan to try this recipe under the broiler first, but I'd also like to try frying them and see which I like better.
