- 1 pound cooked lobster meat, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- Pinch of cayenne pepper (if desired)
- 4 top-split hot dog buns, toasted
- Shredded lettuce (if desired)
- Paprika, for sprinkling on top (if desired)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the lobster meat, celery, salt, pepper and lemon juice, and cayenne (if using) until well blended.

Notes
Crab Roll Variation
I think I prefer crab rolls to lobster rolls, but don't tell my mom. To make crab rolls, just substitute a pound of lump crabmeat (being sure to remove all the bits of cartilage first) for the lobster meat. Lobster Salad Variation
Save the bun calories and enjoy your lobster salad on a bed of greens. 7 *SmartPoints (Green plan) 6 *SmartPoints (Blue plan) 6 *SmartPoints (Purple plan) 7 *PointsPlus (Old plan)
