McDonalds? Lobster? You heard right, and the fast food giant actually keeps this New England staple pretty simple. Fresh lobster and a crunchy lettuce leaf on a good roll is all it takes. Add some dried herbs or red pepper flakes into the mayo for a nice addition.

ingredients

1/2 cup chopped cooked lobster meat
1/2 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 pinch salt
1 leaf lettuce
1 hoagie roll or large hot dog bun, sliced lengthwise

directions

Combine the lobster, mayonnaise, and salt in a bowl. Mix to coat the lobster in the mayonnaise.

Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of the hoagie roll. Spread the lobster mixture over the lettuce, packing it lightly. Gently press the top of the bun down to form the sandwich.

Serve the lobster sandwich immediately.

The lobster filling can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

This recipe is missing the essential spice and/or herb in the mayo which makes the recipe interesting at MaDonald.

Add a splash of sriracha to the mayo/lobster mix!

Oddly enough, it is menu item at select stores mostly in Maine during the summer months.

  I'm guessing it's one of those regional/limited time sort of sandwiches... as to what's in it? I'm not sure I want to know!

Onion Soup Mix Saves The Day

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
