My friend Susie posted on facebook about an amazing recipe for Cheesy Seafood Lasagna she made earlier this year and I knew we had to try it. THANK YOU SUSIE! Mom helped me figure out the recipe, and we were in business. We used real crab instead of imitation and added some cheese (duh). We also made it in a smaller dish in order to make high layers of all the goodness. THE MORE THE BETTER!

If you’re worried about cheese + seafood, don’t be! It somehow just WORKS in this delicious recipe. It’s a creative spin on a classic recipe that everyone is sure to love. Aren’t easy seafood recipes the best?!

Tips for making Seafood Lasagna:

This is the kind of meal you pay top dollar for at your favorite seafood grill. Layers of crab, shrimp, and scallops, OH MY! Its just too good to be true. Pair it with some amazing white wine and you’ll really be in business. If your dinner guests love seafood, this is a great recipe to serve a crowd. It always impresses!

I hope you give this a try. Pat gives it his biggest 5 star thumbs up review.

Pat loves seafood so I knew this Seafood Lasagna Recipe would be right up his alley. He was so disappointed when the leftovers ran out. Don’t worry Pat, I’ll be making this Cheesy Lasagna Recipe again and again! He is my toughest critic so his praise is always very important and valued!

I hope you love this Seafood Lasagna Recipe as much as we do! It’s a family favorite for sure. Pair it with our Oatmeal Molasses Rolls and some Oreo Poke Cake for dessert (it won’t be a low cal day and that’s okay!). And if you’re a true seafood lover, you MUST make our Grilled Salmon with Avocado Salsa and Bang Bang Shrimp Recipe.
