Luscious Lobster Dip from Leftovers

I have asked Charlotte, my daughter, to add any recipe she might want to share with me on this blog so here is her first of many to come on how to use up extra lobster meat. If only I was so lucky to be in her predicament after I graduated from University… extra lobster meat!?!

Being almost 6 months out of college, my roommate and I now consider ourselves mature adults. Of course, swapping keg parties for dinner parties was a much easier transition in theory than in practice for us.

While some assumed our shared lack of experience in the kitchen was our largest hurtle, I am one to believe that the fact that our washer and dryer flank our oven was more of an issue. Putting off our daunting kitchen was not going to work forever though. So, when an excess amount of lobster meat came to be in my possession we decided to be creative and do something exciting with it.
