Lobster Mac & Cheese

A classic and a favourite. Everyone loves mac & cheese so why not add your favourite protein to it! I lovr seafood so here’s a repost and revamp of my mac and cheese recipe from 2017.

INgredients

Cavatappi Pasta

Old Cheddar Cheese

All Purpose Flour

3% Milk

Butter or Margarine

Salt & Pepper

Paprika

All Purpose Seasoning

Garlic Powder

5 oz Lobster Tail

What to do

Bring a pot of water to a boil to cook your macaroni Pasta. Drain once it's done and set aside in a large bowl. 

Start off by melting 1/4 cup of butter in a pot on low-medium heat. Add in a 1/4 cup of flour and stir for about a minute until it starts browning. During this time add in some salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and all purpose seasoning to taste.

Add in 3 1/2 cups of milk and 2 1/2 cups of shredded cheese. Note: don't add all the cheese in at once. Add a little in at a time and stir constantly. 

Once your sauce is at a medium to thick consistency, quickly add it to your pasta and mix.

Lobster topping

Remove your lobster meat from the tail and chop it into small pieces. In a small bowl with your lobster meat, season it with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

In a medium sized pan on medium heat with some butter sauté your lobster meat until cooked. Place on top of your mac & cheese and enjoy! Bonus: I like to garnish mac & cheese with green onion for a pop of fresh flavour.
