The Fish Friday Foodies are sharing Lobster Recipes today........
Camilla of Culinary Cam is hosting this month and invited us to kick off the New Year with Lobster Recipes.  I think that is a great start to 2023!  

Let's take a look at the Lobster recipes being shared today.......

This was an easy peasy recipe as I started with some frozen lobster tails that were already seasoned with a butter sauce.  I simply put them in the oven frozen and let them roast while I made the avocado lime crema.  You can, of course, steam your own lobster and then saute the chunks in a butter garlic sauce.
