Gently mix the lobster meat into the dressing. Season to taste with salt  and pepper.

Star Star Star Star Star by winstonk, 11/6/2012Excellent although I had to make some substitutions such as shrimp for lobster, dill paste for fresh dill and green lettuce for butter lettuce. Simple to make and delicious.
