  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions
 
  • Mix everything together in a bowl except for the oil.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, measure 1/4 cup mixture for each cake.
  • Fry cakes 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

Tips: Make sure to drain the water first. Would be really good with a cilantro lime dipping sauce. Good made with salmon.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars


Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars(from Let’s Dish)
Ingredients
1 cup butter melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (use the boxed kind, or grind them in a food processor. Tiny granules.)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup + 4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners’ sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 inch pan. In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.
