If you intend to race cross you will, at some point in each race, have to get off your bike and run - so recessed a cleat shoes/cleat system is pretty much a must.

thanks for the tips, I wasn't sure which way to go.
Yes, a mountain pedal / cleat / shoe system is a must in 'cross. I have used the Time mountain pedals (ATAC) for years, which are fine and quite popular. I just (yesterday in fact) switched to Crank Bros. Eggbeaters, and they worked well. I thought they were a little easier in 'n out than the Times.
I have been using the Crank Bros. Candy all season and am not really fond of them. I've found it tough to clip in lately, especially in yesterday's race (even with new cleats). I think I'll try something new for next year.
I use a wellgo spd type mountain bike pedal - it is just a shimano spd knockoff just like i use on my mountain bike.
