Boil elbow macaroni for 10 minutes until cooked; drain and set aside.

Melt butter in a saucepan to prepare for making a white sauce.

Gradually add milk to the roux, stirring continuously until smooth.

Add cheddar cheese and gruyere cheese to the sauce and mix until melted and combined.

Add cooked macaroni and lobster meat to the cheese sauce and mix well.

Transfer the mixture into a baking dish.
