Ingredients

• 14 oz can Hearts of palm
• 14 oz can Artichoke hearts
• 2 medium Celery stalks, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Hot dog rolls
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
• 8 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Drain the hearts of palm and artichoke hearts thoroughly, then pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

Using your hands, break the hearts of palm and artichoke hearts into bite-sized chunks resembling lobster meat.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped celery, red onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Gently fold in the hearts of palm and artichoke chunks into the mixture. Ensure that everything is evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Step 6

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Brush the insides of the hot dog rolls with melted butter.

Step 7

Place the buttered rolls in the skillet, grilling the insides until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Once the rolls are toasted, line each roll with two lettuce leaves.

Step 9

Generously fill each prepared roll with the vegetarian lobster salad mixture.

Step 10

Serve the Vegetarian Maine Lobster Rolls immediately, enjoying the fresh and flavorful combination.
