Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (14 oz each) hearts of palm
- 0.5 cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 medium, finely chopped celery stalk
- 2 stalks, finely chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 vegan hot dog buns
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 4 lettuce leaves
Instructions
Drain and rinse the hearts of palm. Cut them into roughly bite-sized chunks to mimic the texture of lobster meat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the vegan mayonnaise, lemon juice, and dijon mustard. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add the chopped celery, green onions, fresh dill, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the mayonnaise mixture. Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
Gently fold in the hearts of palm chunks into the mixture, ensuring they are well coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the vegan butter. Once melted, toast the inside surfaces of the hot dog buns until golden brown and crispy.
Line each toasted bun with a lettuce leaf and fill with the chilled heart of palm mixture to create the lobster roll.
Garnish with additional fresh dill if desired and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
