Clean Crab Cakes

Oh my gosh so I was craving crab cakes like a crazy woman but could not find a "clean" crab cake recipe to save my life so my husband said, "Why don't you make your own?"  He's a genius right?!  LOL But he was right!  A lot of times we get wrapped up into searching for clean recipes when we can create that clean recipe ourselves, it may just take a little more thought ;) But if you're looking for a clean crab cake recipe, try this one out, it was DELICIOUS!! AND for all my Beachbody peeps, it's 21 Day Fix Approved!!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 12 ounces of lump crab meat
• 3/4 cup of Panko Breadcrumbs or any kind of bread crumbs you may have handy will work
• 2 eggs, beaten
• half of a chopped onion
• half of a red pepper
• 2 tablespoon of plain Greek yogurt
• Himalayan salt, pepper, garlic powder, & onion powder to taste

Directions

Spay your baking sheet with the cooking spray and preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In a bowl combine the Panko bread crumbs, eggs, Greek yogurt, crab meat, & seasonings to taste.  Mix everything together until evenly mixed.  I then put the crab mixture in the fridge for about 15 minutes.  Remove the crab mixture from the fridge and form into patties.  Place crab patties in the oven for 10 minutes, flip patties, and cook on the other side for 10 minutes.  Serve immediately!  I served my crab cakes over a bed of roasted garlic quiona with a side of veggies but you can have it over a bed of brown rice or by itself!  After coming up with my own crab cake recipe, I didn't have the patience to come up with a sauce LOL so we just topped it with a drizzle of hot sauce!  YUM YUM!!
