Cooking for the Oscars: crab cakes, rice pilaf and "Olive Garden salad".

Tossed in garlic and butter.

Croutons. Delish.

Zesty dressing.

Cooking the rice.. without a rice cooker! ;)

Rice pilaf.

Bread crumbs.

Crab cake mix.

Making patties. These didn't seem to stick together very well, but cooked fine.

Pan fried.

"Olive Garden salad". Not exactly the Olive Garden salad, but it was amazing. I loooved it.

Crab cake and rice pilaf with currants. Yummmmy.
