There’s nothing like dipping some warm cheese biscuits into a delicious bowl of creamy yet spicy bowl of lobster bisque soup. I’ve had many variations of this soup and have found many of them don’t hit the spot quite like my recipe does. I have to honestly thank Red Lobster for introducing this new obsession of mine to my family and I. It really was a treat to give this soup a try and find out it was something I don’t think I can live without again.
Everyone who knows me basically knows I have a problem where I can fall in love with a recipe, and then continuously make the recipe over and over again during the week. Sometimes it works out for my whole family, sometimes it doesn’t. I mean I can’t blame them on the 4th day that they would like to try something of more substance than a liquid based food for dinner lol. My defense is it comes with biscuits!
Any who, this recipe is so darn good and is so easy to make. It is definitely one of my go to dinners when I’m on the go and rushing out the door. I love to pop these ingredients in my crock pot and then get to my daily errands. I’ve found this is also a great recipe to warm up and transfer into bread bowls the next day. Have you ever had Lobster Bisque soup before? Do you like your super creamy or a little spicy and herby?
