Lobster Mac & Cheese With Truffle Oil
Ever since I bought a bottle of Truffle Oil, I've been dying to make Lobster Mac & Cheese with Truffle Oil and Valentine's Day seemed like a great time to test it out. I had never cooked with lobster before so this recipe forced me to step out of my comfort zone (which was one of my resolutions). I have to admit I was impressed with how it turned out. It was rich, creamy, cheesy, and so delicious. I combined a few recipes, using this one to cook the lobster tail and this for the mac and cheese (I used panko bread crumbs instead of homemade). And even though this wasn't the main course for our Valentine's Day dinner (we grilled steaks as well), it definitely stole the show.

I went out to eat for valentines day and the restaurant had a lobster risotto and a lobster mac n cheese.. I went for the risotto so I guess I'll have to steal your idea and make this at home!

This stuff is really something special! It definitely stole the spotlight!
omg - how decadent! that looks just plain fantastic.
I'm drooling at my desk!
Amazing. Will have to try. I had made the pizza with truffle oil that you did, turned out great. Thanks for that.
Yum! This looks amzing! I always think that combining recipes is the way to go. But I love tons of flavor. Your blog is inspiring me to cook (and possibly get fat)....very fun to read though! I'm a new follower!

Oh whoa...did you say truffle oil? Val. Are you hooked on the stuff? Chef had me and a friend into one of his restaurants a couple years ago and one of the dishes he made us was lobster risotto w/truffle - oh hell they about had to haul us out of the building. That stuff is so good. I had mac and cheese w/ketchup last night - somehow grossly paling in comparison to this treasure you've got going here...

Isn't truffle oil the BEST!
Oh YUM! I always get lobster mac and cheese at one of our favorite restaurants, but have never been brave enough to try it on my own.
Mmmm, the mere thought of this makes my tummy happy.
Amazing! Every time I see your food posts, I think "Why oh why can't we be neighbors?"
Have a great week! I am signing off until Monday!
