I decided to go on an East Coast journey with two dishes from Cooking Light which were the Lobster Rolls and the Roasted Corn, Pepper and Tomato Chowder recipes.
SO I make the lobster filling and chill it for an hour as suggested and then proceed to dedicate my evening to making the chowder. The chowder was very, very good. It had a nice sweetness to it and the bleu cheese and chives really made this dish sing.
As I was finishing up my chowda I pulled out my lobster roll filling and set it on the counter. As I was walking away I heard a loud crash, and at that moment realized that my entire lobster filling had crashed to the floor. Of course my funny little cat, known as Gabriel, smelling lobster ran straight towards the kitchen where I squealed and scooted him out. Look at that face, can’t let my little one get hurt!
Although I was seriously disappointed in my complete idiocy, I did get to taste the filling before it chilled and it was so, so, so good…sigh. Maybe y’all should try it and let me know how it really turns out.
I highly recommend the chowder recipe and I have plenty of leftovers for the next few days!
That's an unfortunate event. I still think you should have eaten it…like I said, glass=fiber. Word.
Is that your bowl with the chowder? I have never seen that bowl before. It's pretty and a perfect chowder bowl.
That's the photo of the chowder from Cooking Light, isn't that pretty? The photos I took were pretty lame because I was so shakey from dropping the lobster. It was my Grandma's bowl. Ugh!
How tragic! You'll have to recreate it for sure.
