Ingredients: 8 oz macaroni pasta. 1 lb cooked lobster meat, chopped. 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese. 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. 2 cups milk. 4 tbsp butter. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour. 1/2 tsp paprika. 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Salt and pepper to taste. 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese. Fresh parsley for garnish.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350F 175C. Cook macaroni pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside. In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to make a roux. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Stir in paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
