Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/2 cup of mayo
1/4 cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 tsp. dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. montreal steak seasoning
1/2 cup of bread crumbs
6 sticks of fake crab
Directions:
Mix ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Shape into balls about the size of 1 tablespoon. Place on lightly greased baking sheet and cook in oven on 400′ for 15-20 minutes. Serve with Cilantro Lime Dipping Sauce.
Cilantro Lime Dipping Sauce:
1/2 cup of mayo
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (fresh!)
Juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 tsp. chile powder
Ingredients:
10 oz. bittersweet dark chocolate, chopped
1 cup of pomegranate seeds
Directions:
Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Melt chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave. Careful to stir it as it melts and not to overheat it so it clumps. Once chocolate is melted, stir in 1/2 cup of pomegranate seeds and combine. Pour the chocolate onto the baking pan and smooth out. Top with remaining pomegranate seeds, careful to gently press them down into the chocolate. Place in refrigerator for about 30 minutes until it has hardened. Break into pieces using a knife or your hands when serving. Store it in a ziplock bag or airtight container in the refrigerator.
*Tips&Tricks: Season with sea salt, ginger or a dash of cayenne pepper for a kick of flavor! You can top the chocolate with different ingredients such as crushed pretzels, chopped up candy and chocolate bars, or drizzle caramel on it before placing it in the fridge. You can also use white chocolate with the pomegranate seeds for a nice contrast!
