No Fail Baked Seafood Lasagna

Alright...I am not the biggest fan of seafood, but this is awesome!

Prep Time: 15min.

3 Tbsp. Butter
3 Tbsp. Flour
3 cups Milk
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 pkg. (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 cup Cottage Cheese
1 cup Shredded Mozzerella Cheese, divided
1/8 tsp. Nutmeg
9 Lasagna noodles
1/2 lb. fresh or thawed frozen cleaned shrimp (31 to 35), cooked
2 cans (6 oz each) crabmeat, drained, flaked

*Preheat oven to 350. Melt butter in large saucepan on medium heat. Add flour; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Gradually add milk, mixing well after each addition. Bring to boil on medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low; simmer 3 to 5 min or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in Parmesan cheese; set aside. Combine spinach, cottage cheese, 2/3 cup mozzerella cheese and nutmeg.

*Spread 1/4 of the Parmesan cheese sauce onto bottom of 9x13 inch pan. Cover with 3 of the lasagna noodles and layers of 1/2 each of the shrimp, crabmeat and spinach mixture; top with 1/4 of the Parmesan cheese sauce. Repeat layers, starting with the noodles.

*Top with remaining 3 lasagna noodles, remaining Parmesan cheese sauce and remaining mozzerella cheese. Cover with foil.

*Bake 25 minutes. Uncover; bake an additional 20 minutes or until lasagna is heated through. Let stand 10 minutes beofre cutting into 12 pieces to serve.

Tastes great with garlic bread!!
