The vehicle for these is anything from New England hot dog rolls to brioche. The one thing that there is no argument about, though, is that it must contain lobster and mayo. This version is very basic and I chose little split top rolls - that I split down the side - toasted on the inside. Very yummy.

Be sure to choose Dolphin-Safe tuna and don't worry about the mercury level; a serving this size once a week is safe for all ages.
