Steps:

- Heat oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet until shimmering and hot. Cook crab cakes for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Turn cakes over gently using a thin spatula and cook on second side for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown, crispy and heated through.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss greens with remaining dressing. Divide greens evenly on to four luncheon or appetizer sized plates. Top dressed greens with two cooked hot crab cakes each and garnish salads evenly with cheese from salad kit. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

CAESAR SALAD WITH MINI CRAB CAKES
You'll be glad you tried this recipe, and your friends & guests will love you! Although it takes a little extra effort to make small crab cakes, they cook in nothing flat. They can be made ahead, and cooked ahead (then reheated), or cooked at the last minute. Perfect for a brunch, luncheon, appetizer, or light, romantic supper. For a bite-sized appetizer, place mini-crabcakes on a warm serving tray. Garnish tray with small sprigs of fresh parsley and basil. Place a very small dollop of Caesar Dressing on each crabcake, top with garnish of your choice, and serve while warm. If this salad is served as a first-course to a main entree, this will serve 10 people (3 crab cakes each). The seasoning for these crab cakes was inspired by recipe #68552, which I scaled down and modified.

QUICK AND EASY CAESAR SALAD
Makes a nice salad, real fast! I like to use almonds when I am avoiding bread. Purchased flavored toasted almonds do fine. Croutons are best home made (brush bread cubes with garlic butter and bake until crisp/dry). I buy anchovy paste in the tube since it keeps a little longer than canned.

CAESAR SALAD (THE ORIGINAL)
This is from Margaret Fultons revised 1968 cookbook (a Christmas present from the DD - my original is rather dog eared and stained) in which she states "This is the authentic recipe made for me by the Cardini family in Mexico, the creataors of the caesar salad. Particular care was taken to lay the tender, elongated cos leaves all in the one direction." Times are estimated.
