Figured I'd start a new post since I wasn't sure if you'd see me post to the one from yesterday..
The lobster turned out really well! Cutting the shell to get the meat out during preparation was a bit of a pain, but after that it was super easy. Came out delicious! I plated it on a bed of Parmesan quinoa with a side of cooked vegetables.

::Butting in-since I seem to keep doing this to you::
Ok, what is quinoa? I know you are a really healthy eater, but.. the parmesan part sounded good...
::butting out::
Quinoa is a whole grain
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa
You can use it in place of rice for example. It has a slight nutty flavor when cooked. I like cooking it in vegetable or chicken broth to give it more flavor. It's really easy to cook on the stove, and is very filling. I like it as a side dish, it's great topped with shrimp or scallops (or lobster!). I also really like it cooked with toasted nuts and dried fruit...it's kind of like a sweet side dish or breakfast even! I buy it at Trader Joe's or Costco, but I'm pretty sure you can find it at any grocery store. It's a very versatile food!
Oh, and for dinner last night I just mixed in some fresh parmesan and garlic to give it some flavor to complement the lobster. It was delicious!
Thanks for the update! I was in the world's longest meeting all day today, ugh.
I'm definitely going to try your recipe in the very near future!
