Think lobster won’t fit into your budget? Think again. These delicious Lobster Tacos are terrific for a quick and easy mid-week meal that won’t bust your budget or your diet. Buy lobster tails when on sale at your local grocery store, steam for 10 minutes, coarsely chop and place in soft taco shells over this slaw with jalapeno sauce.
Freshly shredded cabbage is tossed with red onion, tomatoes and homemade poppy seed dressing, placed in a mini tortilla and topped with lobster, avocado and a dollop of jalapeno sauce made from sour cream, jalapeno juice, chopped pickled jalapenos, lemon zest and white pepper. Recipe serves 4 servings of 2 tacos.
To reduce the carbohydrates and calories per serving, use only 1 mini tortilla per taco.
For dairy-free versions, use non-dairy greek-style yogurt. For tacos, use your choice of whole wheat, corn or flour mini tortillas or gluten-free versions.
