Seafood Bisque

This Seafood Bisque is delicious and easy! Shrimp and crabmeat in every bite!

Making a quick batch of Seafood Bisque on a chilly night couldn’t be more perfect! I promise, friends, this seafood bisque recipe is super easy, too.

For some reason a lot of people seem to shy away from making seafood recipes at home. The ingredients can be expensive and if the recipe doesn’t turn out, it seems wasteful. Believe me, I’ve been there!

I’ve found that splurging on my grocery budget once in a while really helps curb my desire to order out on a whim. And I’ll point out that while it may be a splurge on the grocery budget, making Seafood Bisque at home costs a FRACTION of what a small bowl would cost in a restaurant.

For those of us with larger families (3+ kids) eating at restaurants is simply not worth the hassle. Heck, families with ANY kids trying to eat out can be chaos! I made this seafood bisque for my family one night and they all raved about it – I highly recommend the splurge! ?

This soup is a perfect dinner to make on a cold winter night, but honestly, it would be perfect ANY time of the year if you ask me! If I find a great seafood sale, you can bet on me making a double batch and freezing it for a quick dinner. Score!
