It’s no secret that I’m a fan of macaroni and cheese. Pasta and cheese, while a little unhealthy (ok, maybe more than a little unhealthy) are two of my favorite things. Macaroni and cheese is quite fun to make. You can experiment with different cheeses and even add meats or veggies. When I got my most recent Food Network magazine, a wave of excitement came over me. The issue was focusing on cheese and there was a tear out pamphlet with 50 varieties of macaroni and cheese included! I looked over this little gem of a booklet and got some ideas for future macaroni and cheese recipes. One of the recipes was for lobster macaroni and cheese. This recipe inspired me to create my own lobster macaroni and cheese recipe. So last Saturday evening, I set out on a mission to make it!

Recipe For Carrabba's Lobster Mac And Cheese

After the recipe was baked and tested, I realized that next time I make it I need to add something to it. I am thinking that chipotle peppers in adobo sauce would work well. While it wasn’t extremely bland, I felt it needed something else to give it a kick. However, the next day it tasted amazing. I think it just needed time for the flavors to mingle. I will still probably try it with chipotle peppers next time, and maybe shrimp and scallops. I hope you enjoy this recipe!
