Combine into first pan and add garlic, lobster, red pepper, jalapeno, habanero sauce, and spinach and saute until vegetables soften and spinach wilts. When all are incorporated remove from the heat and blend in the cheese. Cool on sheet pan. When set; roll in tortillas, sealing ends with egg yolk. Wrap each in plastic. Refrigerate.
