Lobster, shrimp and salmon mousse waffles

I bought a variety pack of Lobster, Shrimp and Salmon Mousse Spread a couple of weeks ago with the intention of making a savory mille-crepe cake. Unfortunately, I never got around to doing so... damn lazy bone....

But then I saw this and it went *taaaaaaa!!!* in my head.... I can make waffles and mix in the mousse!!!!! *taaaaaaaa!!!*




Lobster, shrimp and salmon mousse waffles
(adapted from this recipe)
makes 8
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 1 cup lobster and/or shrimp mousse
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp melted butter
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the first 3 ingredients together n set aside
In another bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients. Slowly incorporate the liquid mixture into the dry mixture while mixing well with a fork. The result will be a pasty

Heat waffle iron and make according to the instruction.


I served them with chunks of avocado and a side of string beans drizzled with home-made balsamic reduction.

The hint of the mousse is pretty subtle, so you really can't pinpoint what it is exactly, but you know it's seafood mousse in there. I'm thinking next time I would make some grilled shrimps to top them with.The whole meal was very yummy all together and I froze the rest of the waffles for next quick meals in need. Booya!

I'm crazy for sweet waffles and my roommate keeps requesting me to do a savory waffle, but I'm still scared. It just seems wrong to me. I can't think of waffles without maple syrup. But what you have here seems pretty creative, but I'm still not sure if I'd be able to follow your lead!
