Dessert: Crab Cakes with Chive Sauce Recipe | MyRecipes

Recipe by Robin Miller We brown the cakes before freezing them, so they go from the freezer to the table in less than 30 minutes. For a light supper, serve a couple of crab cakes with a tossed green salad. Garnish with chives.

3 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano

Place in zip-top plastic bags; freeze up to 3 months.
