Week 11 Day 1 Craving Maryland crabcakes

When I was studying in Maryland, there was that awesome crab cakes place called Faidley Seafood! My coresidents and I loved their crab cakes so much that we were eating them once a week! Good old days. I have yet to find another place that makes them as deliciously. Unfortunately, I am now very very far from Baltimore... so I had to create my own version.

While lining up to purchase their food, you could see all their cooks making the cakes, so I know the original Faidley crab cake, as delicious as it was, has tons of mayonnaise, contains saltine crackers, and is deep fried...  Here is my light take on it!

LIGHT MARYLAND CRAB CAKE:

Ingredients:
4 oz of crab meat
1 egg white
0.5 tbsp light olive oil mayonnaise
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp worcestershire sauce

- In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and the dijon mustard.
- In a different, bigger bowl, mix together the egg white and the worcestershire sauce.
- Add in the crab meat to the big bowl. Once fully mixed, add in the mayonnaise-dijon mustard mix.
- Make a nice tight lump and broil in the oven for 10-15 mn.
- Makes 1 serving clocking in about 150 calories. Enjoy!
