Jump to Recipe One of the easiest and most insanely delicious meals you will ever make is this White Cheddar Lobster Macaroni and Cheese! So rich and flavorful with succulent tender pieces of lobster meat throughout the gooey, cheesy deliciousness of a stove-top mac n cheese! The creamy deliciousness of white cheddar mac n cheese combined with plenty of fresh lobster meat make this lobster mac over the top tasty! Originally I got this idea from going to a Ruth Chris Steakhouse and seeing their version of this as an appetizer. What more needs to be said about anything as tantalizingly tasty as combining the most classic of comfort foods (mac n cheese) with the Cadillac of seafood (lobster)?! Not much, I’m sure 🙂 It’s taken a while to get this post up and on the blog, but this fantastic lobster was from an order to one of our favorite online sources, the Clam Man. See the other recipes from our summer seafood splurge (with a few more stragglers yet to be added), including Lobster Jalapeno Poppers, Gordon Ramsay’s HK Lobster Risotto, Steamed Clams, and Cod En Papillote.
