What a great recipe! And so easy! I couldn't find fresh lobster meat so I used fresh cooked shrimp instead. It was perfect. After mixing the shrimp, dressing and tomatoes I took enough salad for two and mixed it with half an avocado per person (sliced, added some bacon, cheese, and arugula. Then I sprinkled it with some lemon. I knew I was going to have leftovers so I didn't want the salad mixed and sit in the refrigerator overnight. it held really well this way and had leftovers for lunch the next day. A definite spring summer dish!

I used about 2/3 lobster tail meat and 1/3 king crab leg meat since I had both on hand. The dijon was a bit on the strong side for me personally but taste and add more or less to your preference. I only used about 4TB of bacon bits and it seemed to be the perfect accent. Instead of hot dog buns I used a easy to bite crusty wheat loaf I cut into squares. I also left out the cheese to cut down fat content. All in all, very delicious and will make again with minor tweaks. Thanks Ina!

I even BBQ Lobster Tails for the first time. I was shocked I grilled the tails perfectly = O I used the dressing to coat lobster before putting them on the grill. Grilled until tails until perfect lobster red, took off let cool a bit, then peeled, pulled meat out and chopped up. Fun and easy way to go when prepared lobster is not available. I then pretty much followed recipe but used Hawiian Sweet bread hot dog buns to finish off. I wanted to continue to be hungry to keep eating these light flavorful lobster rolls. Happy Summer!

I wanted a quick no-cook summer weeknight meal and this recipe fit the bill. Like other reviewers, I also substituted cooked shrimp for lobster because it is easier to find and more economical and I thought it worked incredibly well. My other substitutions included spinach for the arugula and to make it a little lighter I left out the cheese and used turkey bacon. I thought this was a great combination of flavors, but my older son did comment on the sour lemon flavor in the dressing. Next time I will try adding a little honey like other reviewers suggested. Otherwise, will make it exactly the same. Thanks Ina!

Hate to say this, but I made some "slight" alterations. Substituted chunky crabmeat for the lobster. Served the salad in rolled tortilla shells. Yum! I'm talking awesome! Will make this again when I want to impress my friends. Great recipe, Ina!

We served this at my daughter's First Communion brunch and everyone loved it. I prepped everything, but the avacado, the night before which made it easy to assemble after Mass. Thank you Ina for a great recipe!

Very Tasty! I took advice from other reviews and used the ingredients according to taste. I used a light crusty roll instead of the hot dog buns. Well done Ina!

I made this recipe several times as straight salad when I was living with a roommate in Atlanta. The main adjustments were replacing the arugula and hot dog rolls with a bed of fresh field greens and I replaced the bleu cheese with chevre to suit my roommate's tastes. It made a wonderful dinner salad in the summer heat.

I made the salad with shrimp that I sauteed in olive oil and seasoned with Old Bay, salt, and ground pepper. I tasted the dressing after following the directions exactly and it was a little sour as other reviews said, so I added a little honey to taste and it was much better. I made the salad on a smaller scale for just myself, so I added everything into my salad bowl and tossed it right before I ate it and didn't worry about the lemon juice for the avocado. I thought it made a delicious dinner with a glass of white wine in the summer!
