Here is a great meal for Lent. Blending a new take on Mac & Cheese with Asiago cheese and imitation lobster! Add a side of roasted Brussels Sprouts mixed with sweet potato along with a tomato and cucumber salad.
When meals taste this good it is hard to think of them as sacrificing anything. Enjoy a full table of flavor with this hardy casserole.
Ingredients:
1 pkg imitation lobster, thawed
1 pkg box mac & cheese
as called for on box:
4 Tbs butter
¾ cup milk (evaporated tastes better in this)
½ pkg cream cheese (lot fat)
½ cup Asiago cheese grated
2 slices American cheese torn up
Topping:
2.5 tbsp butter, melted
¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup parmesan, finely grated
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 420 degrees. Line a baking tray with foil and spray a 9 x 9 baking dish lightly and set aside.
Cook pasta according to box directions. And thaw the sea food.
In a medium sized bowl: place the cream cheese, Asiago cheese, American cheese pieces, butter, mix packet contents, and milk. Microwave for 30 sec until melted and stir to blend. When pasta is done, drain and stir in the cheese mixture.
With a fork mix in the imitation lobster.
In a small bowl, melt the butter, add bread crumbs, parmesan and salt then stir until well combined.
Place mac & cheese mixture in the sprayed dish and cover with topping.
Bake until top is golden and crispy. About 40 mins. The same amount of time for the roasted vegetables.
