How to Make Shrimp & Crab Alfredo Lasagna Roll-Ups

Cook the Noodles

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean surface to cool slightly. This prevents sticking and makes rolling easier.

Prepare the Seafood Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, crab meat, ricotta cheese, half of the Alfredo sauce, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until everything is well incorporated and creamy.

Assemble the Roll-Ups

Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a greased baking dish. Take each noodle and add about 1/4 cup of filling, then roll it up tightly. Place seam-side down in the dish. Repeat with the remaining noodles.

Add Sauce and Cheese

Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the roll-ups. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan generously on top to create that irresistible cheesy crust.

Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.

Garnish and Serve

Let the roll-ups cool for a few minutes, then sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve warm and enjoy every creamy, seafood-filled bite.
