Last weekend we had our First Annual Soup Party. Every family brought some kind of soup/chili, etc. I will be posting the recipes that people provided in posts here. I hope you all try to make some of the other soups. That’s part of the point!
Lobster Bisque - Jennifer and Dennis Newman
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 25 Minutes
Ready In: 35 Minutes
Servings: 8
INGREDIENTS:
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
4 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
3 tablespoons minced onion
3 cups cooked lobster meat, shredded
1 tablespoon paprika
1/2 cup light cream
DIRECTIONS:
1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the flour,
salt, pepper and celery salt until well blended. Gradually stir in the milk
so that no lumps form, and then stir in the chicken stock. Cook over low
heat, stirring constantly, until the soup begins to thicken. Add the onion
and lobster; season with paprika. Cook and stir for 10 more minutes. Stir in
the cream, heat through and serve.
Note: We added 1 can of tomato paste to thicken

This soup was really, really delicious. I will be adding this to my recipe book. I was hoping to find the recipe for the broccoli cheese soup so I’ll patiently wait.
