DOWNEAST LOBSTER ROLL
That Maine-iac has me dreaming of my favorite summertime treat! Use any type of roll you like for this recipe. In the northeast the hotdog rolls are flat on the sides and split on the top. Hotdog rolls and fresh Kaiser rolls are what I usually grill for this sandwich. Enjoy!!

LOBSTER ROLLS
I grew up in Nova Scotia where seafood was cheap. My Mom and grandmothers had some pretty inventive ways of making lobster 'not-boring!' Now, lobster is a treat and costs a fortune. I've paid over ten dollars for one of these lobster rolls in Cape Cod and it wasn't half as good or half as big as the ones my Mom taught me to make. This is a wonderful summer (or winter) treat and makes a fancy luncheon to impress your friends. (And no, I don't eat the green stuff in the lobster!)

Steps:
- Lightly butter the insides of the buns or rolls and line with lettuce leaves. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lime juice, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper until well blended. Mix in the green onion and celery, then lightly mix in the lobster so it just gets coated without falling apart.
- Stuff the lobster filling into the buns and sprinkle parsley, basil or tarragon lightly over the filling.

LOBSTER ROLL
Lobster rolls are one of my favorite treats and so simple to prepare. You can purchase the lobsters already cooked or you can boil them yourself. If you chose the latter, boil lobsters according to recipe #126937.
