The link attached to “Crab and Lobster bisque with market vegetables” under soups tries to go to the “edit” page instead of the recipe. I’d love to see the recipe.
Thanks,
Brian
It’s a quick version that uses a can I picked up at Sunterra for the base. The link is here: http://chocolateandginger.com/2011/05/15/dining-in-crab-lobster-bisque-w-market-fresh-vegetables/
If you’d like to make from scratch, here is a link to a recipe: http://www.food.com/recipe/lobster-or-crab-bisque-229275
and then add in the veggies like I did. Hope this helps!
Thank you, I appreciate that information. You will probably want to change the link above to work right. though.
I changed it. Thank you
