Lobster & Squash for dinner!

I found this amazing Lobster and squash recipe on Pinterest, and I had to try it!
I ran off to the grocery store and grabbed the ingredients.

I knew I did not have time to cook a lobster – nor do I like to cook a lobster. I strolled up to the seafood counter and asked the gentleman if they can cook lobster for me – and they do! YES! Ingredients purchased – time to head home and cook!
Problem number one – The grocery store was out of spaghetti squash! so, I improvised and used squash noodles – zucchini, summer squash and butternut squash noodles! I baked them in the oven for just a few minutes – I wanted them to be warm when I added them to the butter!
Next I chopped the garlic, sage, and basil, and sprinkled the sea salt in. I started to melt the butter! This recipe calls for 3/4 of a cup of butter, I used that much, but, you could cut it back if butter is a problem for you.
Then I added the chopped ingredients into the butter. I let them sit on low for a few minutes.


This part was hard because it smells so good and you just want to eat – even the lobster was ready to dive in…

I put the squash in the butter and used tongs to make sure it was all coated in the herb butter. After about 2 minutes, I added the lobster, and then let it all swim around for a few minutes.

I picked out my big bowl, and portioned it in half – half for me, half for Steve, and I sat down and loved every last bite of it! I will absolutely make this again, and may find other variations to make for my non seafood eating children!

Here is the original Pin that I found –
and here is the recipe with my food adaptations – You decide which way you love it! Let me know if you try this recipe and what change about it!

  1. Squash Noodles – Zucchini, Summer, butternut
  2. 3/4 cup salted butter
  3. 2 garlic cloves, minced

  4. Once the squash is done cooking, place the butter into a skillet over medium heat.
  5. Wait for it to melt then add the garlic, herbs, and sea salt.
  6. Once the butter sauce becomes fragrant add the squash noodles to the skillet.
  7. Toss to coat the squash.
  8. Finally, add lobster and toss everything to heat through, about 1 – 2 minutes.
