10-Minute Ranch Lobster Rolls

Pre-cooked frozen lobster makes for an ultra-quick lobster roll filling, and you’ll love this ranch-flavoured twist on the classic. Tails are very meaty, but you can also use claws for an even more budget-savvy option. Tortilla chips make a great side, and we won’t blame you if you crush up a few as a lobster roll topping for added crunch!
