Instead of the heavy, cheesy sauce that was common in the 1980s, I used a beautiful, light sauce on this iconic special occasion meal, lobster thermidor. The lighter sauce is a great choice because lobster is naturally sweet and flavorful. Better yet, you can prepare these in advance and simply throw them in the oven when your visitors come.

If you love green olives you’ll love this. I used pimento stuffed ones, didn’t flip them in the oven but still turned out okay
