Creamy Spicy Lobster Pasta – The perfect indulgent meal to make for any special occasion. Serve with fresh baguette on the side to soak up all that extra sweet and spicy sauce. This pasta features linguine pasta, chunks of sweet lobster meat and a delicious flavor packed spicy tomato creamy sauce! I used a combination of fresh lobster tail and frozen cooked lobster knuckle and claw meat to make this.

This looks delicious, what can I use instead of cream for a lactose-intolerant person?
I love using unsweetened coconut cream for a non-dairy substitute. If you use coconut milk or cream, add additional grated garlic at the end to mask any coconut flavor.
Thank you that really helps.
