Lobster Salad



Can we just take a moment to just pay homage to this 
amazing sea creature, the lobster!
Oh MY!
Yep it's pretty amazing to munch on a nice lobster tail!
I can just slap on some butter and squeeze half a lemon
on this bad boy and I am golden all week!
Many years ago we took a vacation in Maine with the kids.
It was just heavenly! 
We skipped along the ocean, ate way too much ice cream, 
pie, fresh berries and LOBSTER!
It is just too easy to eat in Maine!
It is ridiculously reasonably priced, fresh out of the water
and readily available at just about any food establishment both fancy and not fancy!
Oh it is just heavenly I tell you!
This was my first experience with a legit......
LOBSTER ROLL!
Oh yes!
They have these hot dog rolls that split on the side and look like 
folded pieces of thick Texas Toast!
Then they stuff these grilled butter rolls with LOBSTER SALAD!
Oh and it is just amazingly yummy and so easy to prepare!
So when Sprouts has a summer sale on lobster tails I load up the buggy!
Check out this easy recipe my friends!

                                         

Lobster Salad

3 or MORE lobster tails
1 organic lemon
sea slat and cracked pepper to taste
1/4 cup of mayo
dash of paprika 


Cook your lobster tails until done. I just throw mine on the grill and wait for them to turn red!
It usually takes about 10-12 minutes.  Once cooled, take the meat out of the tails, cut into bite-sized chunks and throw into a bowl. Add the mayo and the juice of one lemon, salt and pepper and toss. You can add less lemon and less mayo depending on your preference. Add a dash of paprika cover and place in the refrigerator to chill before serving. You can serve it on a bed of greens or toast up a bun and load it up. Either way it is just the perfect summer treat! Pour up a nice glass of Chablis and there ya go mamas! YUM!
