Lobster Mascarpone Mac and Cheese
A combination of Mascarpone, Gruyere and Parmigiano Reggiano make up the extra creamy, gooey sauce that covers the succulent bits of lobster and bacon. It is then baked into the perfectly al dente macaroni pasta until bubbling hot with a crunchy Panko bread crumb and Parmigiano Reggiano topping.
