This is amazing. I don't make this often since lobster is so expensive but when I have special overnight guests who like seafood this is a must. Hope you enjoy as much as we do. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups flour |

1-1/2 cups cooked lobster meat coarsely chopped |
3/4 cup grated swiss cheese |
3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese |
1 small white onion |
1 garlic clove |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/2 teaspoon tarragon |
