I did share a lobster roll recipe with you once before back in 2017 that was inspired by a book I read called Sisters One, Two, Three. I flavored that lobster salad with tarragon.
In this recipe I flavored the lobster salad with a bit of homemade pesto to tie in with the tomatoes from our garden. It is a delicious sandwich and I could have eaten both of them but Frank has been working very hard on my kitchen so I shared with him.
This recipe makes 2 lobster rolls, if you are very hungry double the recipe so each person can have two or do as I did and serve up some potato salad with the sandwich.
If you are a food blogger and would like to join us each month as we create fish and seafood dishes based on a theme or ingredient leave your name and a link to your blog below so that I can send you an invitation.

How "good" of you to share LOL! Making this into a BLT is genius!!! It sounds delicious.
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious Karen.
DeleteLooking at all that work he's done, Frank definitely deserved that lobster roll! Might generous of you. Haha. I love the idea of a lobster BLT. Good job.
ReplyDeleteYes, but Frank would have been just as happy, if not happier, with a plain old BLT.
DeleteWhat a delicious BLT roll!
