ZUCCHINI STUFFED CRAB CAKES RECIPE
(Almost) everyone loves a good crab cake. But let's face it: A lot of crab cakes are made with the same crab, breadcrumb, spice mixture. You wanna win points next time you're making apps or hors d'oeuvres? Stuff those puppies with fresh-from-the-garden (or farm stand) summer squash or zucchini. It'll add texture and a cool contrast to the spices, and you'll be that cool person who made the memorable crab cakes.
