Lobster and Roasted Corn Chowder
You can never go wrong with lobster, period. We love it here but of course, don’t indulge that often. We had some leftover from doing another meal and it was cooked and thawed so I had to use it up quickly. I came across this recipe and had everything on hand so I went at it.
The addition of the roasted corn intrigued me and I thought it would pair so lovely with the lobster. I was right, this is one amazing chowder. Fit for a king or your little family for a treat!! Purchasing already cooked and shelled lobsters make life very easy and you don’t need tons to be extremely satisfied. Enjoy this soup!!
