SHRIMP MAC AND CHEESE
This macaroni and cheese takes on a subtle coastal flair with the addition of shrimp. I used cooked salad shrimp as I found the size comparable to the elbow macaroni.

This is a creamy, rich, and decadent recipe for an 'over the top' addition to any meal. After years of making basic mac and cheese, this version with shrimp and lobster is an indulgence worth making for those special to you. It is an adapted recipe from strong Southern women (Patti LaBelle, Mama Jean, and my son's girlfriend Ashley)...all wonderful foodies! I make this a day ahead.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni and 1/2 cup dried onion in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until macaroni is tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
- Place lobster and shrimp in a colander. Pour the cooked pasta and onions over shellfish; let drain.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Warm evaporated milk and cream slowly in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour. Whisk eggs together in a small bowl.
- Cook sauce until small bubbles form. Add sauce very slowly, 1/4 cup at a time, to the bowl with the eggs, being careful not to cook and scramble the eggs. Slowly mix the egg-cream mixture back into the pan. Continue cooking on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until thick and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Melt 1 stick of butter in the pot used to cook the pasta over medium heat. Add flour; cook until roux thickens and turns caramel in color, about 5 minutes. Stir in Cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until mostly melted, about 4 minutes. Pour in the cream sauce and stir until smooth.
- Stir pasta, lobster, and shrimp into the cheese and cream sauce to coat completely. Pour mac and cheese into a 9x11-inch baking dish.
- Melt another stick of butter in the saucepan used to make the sauce. Add onion seasoning and herbes de Provence; stir. Add crackers. Cook and stir over medium heat until coating mixture is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
- Cover mac and cheese with thin pats of butter. Top with the cracker coating.
- Bake in the preheated oven until top is crispy and cheeses are melted, about 1 hour.

Steps:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat until foamy but not brown. Stir in the panko, 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the panko is golden brown, about 5 minutes.

- Meanwhile, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and reduce until the alcohol smell is no longer present and the sauce is a nice golden color, about 2 minutes. Stir in the shrimp and lemon zest and cook, stirring, until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, about 2 minutes; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and set aside.
- Add the pasta and shrimp mixture to the cheese sauce and stir to combine. Stir in some of the reserved pasta water to thin the sauce if needed. Season to taste with salt if needed. Spoon the hot mac and cheese into bowls and sprinkle with the parsley panko.

BACON SHRIMP MAC AND CHEESE (BITES)
With the upcoming Holidays approaching I decided I would try some new appetizers.We have our family favorites, but I wanted to try a few new things. My boys love mac and cheese (who doesn't?) they are young foodies & really expect more than the blue box -- as delish as it is on occasion. So I stepped it up. Everything, & I hope you agree, is better with bacon. We are lucky to live where we can inexpensively get shrimp so hmm. How can I make these into a bite size appetizer? It is phenomenal on its own but not really party friendly.These tiny bite sized balls are just the tasty fit for a party

Steps:
- I begin the recipe by browning the bacon lardons in a large sauce pan. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a papertowel. Add the shallots and cook until just softened, add some butter and flour and cook until lightly brown, you are making a simple béchamel sauce. Add the milk and ½ and ½, stir until the mixture begins to bubble slightly and thicken, reduce heat and continue to cook add a few pinches of ground mustard, a dash of paprika, toss in a bay leaf or two and a bit of chipotle powder, salt and pepper and taste. Add a dash or pinch more until you say YUMMO....but wait we still have to add the cheese and then a touch of nutmeg. Taste adjust seasoning. Toss in the chopped parsley (optional)
- Now for the Shrimp I season with montreal seasoning, and olive oil and saute or grill until just pink. Cool and chop
- Pour the béchamel sauce over the cooked pasta add the shrimp and the bacon. Let cool and form into balls. Set up a breading station. Flour one bowl, I mix the egg in one bowl and then mix the breadcrumbs and the corn meal in another. In a deep fryer or in a deep saute pan add the canola oil and heat. You will know it ready when you toss in a bit of bread crumbs and they don't sink. Put the pasta balls in flour, then egg then bread crumb mixture and place carefully in the hot oil, cook until golden brown. Be very gentle removing them they fall apart easily when they are piping hot. They really are little nuggets of yumminess! Perfect with or without a dipping sauce. I reserved some of the béchamel but it really didn't need it. Hope you love them...
