Lobster Mac and Cheese
After the first time I made this Publick House Mac and Cheese, I knew I’d be making it again soon. With lobster. As I mentioned, Hubby loves when The Publick House has this special on their menu and I wanted to recreate it for him.
I decided to get pre-cooked lobster meat instead of cooking the lobsters myself. I headed over to Wulf’s Fish Market where they did the hard work for me. I did have to wait for the lobster meat to be removed from the freshly cooked lobsters, so I ran other errands and came back for it. I got two lobsters worth of meat which came out to about 3/4 of a pound.
I mixed the lobster in to 1/3 of the mac and cheese that this recipe makes. I actually made a whole batch of the mac and cheese and used part of it for this Lobster Mac and Cheese and I mixed roasted vegetables into the rest of it.

Lobster Mac and Cheese
Lobster pairs perfectly with this subtle creamy mac and cheese
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients:
1/3 batch of mac and cheese
meat from 2 lobsters (~3/4 lb of meat)
Directions:
Make mac and cheese according to this recipe but do not bake it. Either only make 1/3 of the original recipe, or make the entire recipe and scoop out 1/3 of the mac and cheese.
Stir the cooked lobster meat in to the mac and cheese prior to baking at 350F for 20 minutes.

wow..great to see a green bean casserole with ingredients that are actually found in nature! 🙂 thank you!

I think this homemade version has to beat the pants off the one with canned mushroom soup. I mean, with portobellos and shitakes? Yes please!
I’ve only tried the “classic” green bean casserole for the first time like a month ago and I’m definitely recreating it this weekend – cream of mushroom and all! Yours, however, looks gourmet and unprocessed!
i’ve never had Green Bean casserole and want to try it so badly! I may just make the processed version to see how it tastes. Yours looks way more fabulous than I could probably ever get mine to be!
Yummmmm- well done in getting rid of the processed sections and going for the natural approach!!!! Looks delicious!
I’ve never had green bean casserole but this makes me want to try it! Yours looks really good.
home made green bean casserole! I didn’t know it was possible! 🙂 Personally I’m in the hate category… but I’d be willing to try this version 🙂
definitely looks better than the “traditional” version!!
Oooh, I am so excited about this! A friend requested green bean casserole for a small holiday party that I’m hosting, but I really, really didn’t want to make the regular version of it. This is perfect!
everything’s better homemade!
This sounds like a very useful veggie side dish come the post-Xmas dinners. I did notice recently that oriental shops also sell roasted shredded crispy onions, if you find yourself very short of time one day (they are not expensive).
Definitely the best green casserole recipe! I’ve been making Alton s recipe for years.
