Crab Cakes With Lime Sauce
"Can't remember where I got this; an addition to a magazine. It is very good. Not a traditional Crab Cake maybe but very tasty and very EASY. The Zaar format didn't recognize just an envelope of salad dressing mix but I am referring to one of the small envelopes about 1/4 ounce"

I am so happy you have posted this recipe! Mine which I don't have any more, used Italian seasoning spice. The ritz crackers make the difference! I bake in the oven 375* for 15 minutes and flip over and bake 10 minutes or a little longer! Don't overbake.I don't have the mess and it is easier. I serve two kinds of dressing with them.
