I’ve always loved a classic lobster roll, so when I came across these Jamaican-style rock lobster tacos, I had to give them a go. If you’re looking for something deliciously different for dinner – perfect for eating outside – these easy tacos are a little exotic, with sweet, crunchy watermelon and soft, creamy avocado. They remind me of the fish tacos I love to order at my favorite food truck in the summer.
And of course I can’t even look at this recipe without this song popping into my head:
