Ingredients
For the Lasagna:
- 9 lasagna noodles (cooked al dente)
- 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup shredded crab meat (fresh, canned, or imitation crab)
For the Filling:
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, thyme mix)
- Salt & black pepper, to taste
For the Sauce & Topping:
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
For Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Pasta
Cook the lasagna noodles in salted water until just tender (al dente). Drain and lay them flat on parchment paper or a clean towel to prevent sticking.
2. Make the Seafood Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped shrimp, shredded crab meat, ricotta cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the Roll-Ups
- Spread 2 tablespoons of Alfredo sauce at the bottom of a baking dish.
- Take one lasagna noodle, spread about 2–3 tablespoons of the seafood filling evenly across it, then roll it up tightly.
- Place the roll-up seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with all noodles.
4. Add Sauce & Cheese
Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the roll-ups. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake
- Cover the dish with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
6. Serve
Let the lasagna roll-ups rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
