Crabcakes are a popular food found along the eastern seaboard. You’ll want to consider the nutritional contents of crab cakes to decide whether you want to include them as part of a healthy diet.

Crabcakes do usually have some sort of vegetable, often carrots or celery. These are an important addition to crabcakes for a number of reasons. Vegetables contain numerous vitamins and minerals that are important for good health. They also contain lots of dietary fiber, which has been found to be effective in the treatment and prevention of a number of dangerous conditions, including cardiovascular disease and cancer. Fiber is great for people who are dieting because it is “bulky,” meaning that it takes up a lot of room in your stomach, making you feel full and preventing overeating more calorically dense foods.

Crabcakes are sky high in fat. They’re often made with mayonnaise, which contains lots of saturated fat. Like cholesterol, saturated fat has been linked to the development of cardiovascular disease, stroke and even some cancers. While there are some brands of mayonnaise now being sold as containing olive oil, don’t be fooled. There may be a bit of olive oil in the product (which is gaining in popularity due to the fact that is has unsaturated instead of saturated fat, and therefore prevents and treats some of the conditions caused by saturated fats), there is still a lot of the saturated fat found in the mayonnaise. In addition, crabcakes are typically fried. This adds tons of calories to your meal. When making crabcakes at home, try baking instead of frying. If you must fry your crabcakes, use olive oil. While this is still very high in calories, at least you’ll be getting unsaturated instead of saturated fat in your diet.

I have actually just taken an apple for dinner tonight and already full. But seeing the picture of this recipe, I got hungry and would like to have a taste of this.
What made me curious to see how t,his is cooked is it being in curry .
I wonder how it tastes and do your son like curry flavored dish?

Are the cracked wheat cooked already after soaking it for 20 minutes?
I like salads, but it’s the first time I have heard of onewith cracked wheat which is bulghur so i know what it is already , since In our primary grades our teacher would let their maid cook the bulghur, donated by the US government to our school . And it’s delicious cooked in milk and some sugar.
Going back to the salad , I cannot imagine the taste though since there’s bulghur which seems out of place in a salad of veggies.

Very good recipe. I heard about it somewhere long back. The chickpea and celery are rich in nutrients. The chickpeas are rich in protein and fiber Nothing can replace chickpea with regard to its fiber content. They are especially good for preparation of Salads. Celery is the best source of Vitamin K, B, Vitamin B12, Vitamin C, Potassium, Potassium, and Magnesium.Moreover, this is rich in Fiber also. It mixes well with chickpeas.

I will prepare this Salad for the next Sunday and see its taste.

Traditional foods should be kept. It is fine when regular meals are done from different generations. Chinese meals are widely known in the world. Chinese cooking is famous globally. It is worth original meals among the Chinese families to be kept all over the world in families and in Chinese restaurants.

Wow! Dear, you are talking all about my favourite food here.
My mom used to cook porridge everyday when I was young and stay at home, only white rice porridge, we will eat it with some dishes,just the normal type like vegetables, potatoes, etc.
The minced pork porridge only available when my mom is not working or she was in the mood. It’s as special meal to me.
My kids insisted that they don’t like to eat porridge after they can eat rice after 2. I fed them porridge when they were 1 year old. So, I didn’t cook porridge for years.
But, I started to cook porridge again lately as I have some white rice in my kitchen. Other than minced pork porridge, I cook some salted eggs, scrambled eggs like you too.
Cook the oat porridge instead of white rice porridge will be faster, I believe. But, would it be more healthier? I am not sure, my hubby is suffered from risk of gout, thus he can’t take oats. Hence, I can only cook white rice porridge.

I think we don’t have broadbeans here. But I like the idea of substituting the shrimps with tofu, because I don’t like the taste of the shrimp sauteed. I just like it fried.

Besides, at home, we seldom cook those with beans because my father-in-law has arthritis. Lately, my hubby’s uric acid has gone up, and I think it is not good to eat for him.

What a delightful treat! Have to share in my foodie circles. 🙂

This and crispy cookies are the best! But they’re like potato chips. You’ll juts keep munching and munching and munching!

Tasteful!

that is super nice recipe but it will take long time, not today but going to see one day and do muffens at home, its the best thing to is to bake at home

Which one tastes better, my friend, turkey or chicken. I haven’t tasted turkey meat yet, since here in the Philippines we don’t have turkey meat on the market. Chicken is much more popular.

So, can chicken instead be used with this recipe. I surely will try this because it’s so easy. I hope I can make it so tasty also.
