  • To make the avocado spread, use ripe avocados that are soft to the touch. Mash the avocados with a fork until they are smooth and creamy.
  • You can use any type of bread you like for your lobster rolls, but a sturdy bread that will hold up to the filling is best. A split-top roll, a hot dog bun, or a brioche bun are all good options.
  • Be generous with the lobster filling. You want each bite of your lobster roll to be packed with flavor.
  • Serve your lobster rolls immediately after you make them. This will ensure that the bread is soft and the filling is warm and delicious.
