Since I was little my Mom and Dad made these treats for us and now I am making them for my own children!! I make them without the peanuts, but still the same idea.

Lobster Stew

It would be wonderful if you added some vegetables to this recipe. After all, it is a stew. Maybe add some potatoes and onions, celery, carrots?
