Lobster Omelette with a Mornay Sauce

Remember that amazing 5th anniversary trip that hubby and I took to New England? Well I remember like it was yesterday. What a beautiful time with my sweetie! You must get there if you haven’t already!! There is plenty to see and do and the seafood is just phenomenal! The fresh decadent lobster was nothing short of spectacular…so much so that we even enjoyed it for breakfast. Yep! I said it…for breakfast!!! At the suggestion of many, we visited a quaint little breakfast spot, Jeannie’s Great Maine Breakfast one morning while we were in Bar Harbor.

Being the Tex-Mex foodie that I am, I ordered the Mexican Burrito stuffed with scrambled eggs, peppers, onions, black beans and cheese. What a nice treat?! But the seafood lover in hubby just couldn’t resist their Lobster Omelette with a Homemade Mornay Sauce. Wow!!! What a culinary explosive party in your mouth?!?!? It was rich, succulent and simply irresistible!! So much so, that Hubby insisted that I recreate this Lobster Omelette with a Mornay Sauce deliciousness in my kitchen back home. I decided that my birthday weekend would be the perfect occasion to enjoy this decadent omelette yet again. We enjoyed it twice this past weekend, Daddy included!!! I’m telling you…serving this Lobster Omelette with a Mornay Sauce is a great way to celebrate any special occasion!!!

I had an awesome 40th birthday by the way!! Yep!!! The BIG 4-0 was filled with lots of surprises (which I usually don’t approve of), great joy and reflection on how good God has been toward me! Let me tell you that God is certainly in the overflow business!! I’m overjoyed and thankful for so many blessings this year and ready for this exciting new chapter of life!! Remember that 40 is really the new 30 by the way!!! 😉 Say Grace and enjoy!!
