Ingredients:
- 2 lg. eggs
- 1/2 lb. fresh lump crabmeat
- 1 c. ricotta cheese
- 1 c. (4 oz.) shredded Monterey Jack
- cheese with jalapenos
- 3 tbsp. snipped chives
- 3/4 c. fine seasoned dry bread crumbs

Directions
In medium bowl, whisk eggs until blended. Stir in crab, cheeses, chives and 1/4 cup bread crumbs. Form heaping tablespoonfuls of crab mixture into 1/4 inch thick cakes; on sheet of waxed paper, coat cakes with remaining bread crumbs. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line baking sheet with paper towels. In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. In hot oil, fry crab cakes, a few at a time, until golden on both sides, about 3 minutes in all.
