1 16-ounce box pasta shells (or your
favorite pasta)
¼ cup flour
3 cups milk
1 cup shredded sharp white cheddar
cheese
1 cup shredded gruyere cheese
1 cup shredded fontina cheese
1 teaspoon each: salt, ground black
pepper, garlic powder
2 cups crushed Ritz crackers
Cook your pasta to almost al dente according to the directions on the box. Drain and set aside.
While your pasta is cooking, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a saucepan over
medium, heat.
Whisk until it begins to thicken a bit, add your cheeses, and keep stirring
until they are melted.
Remove from heat and add your salt, pepper, and garlic.
In a large bowl add your pasta, chopped lobster, and cheese sauce. Stir to combine, making sure all the pasta is evenly coated in the cheese sauce.
Pour into a greased 13×9 baking dish.
In a small saucepan melt the remaining three tablespoons butter and mix with the
cracker crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over the top of the lobster and pasta.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes until hot and bubbly and cracker crumbs are golden brown.
Remove from oven and let the dish sit for at least 10 minutes before digging
in!
