How To Make seafood lasagna

    The seafood blend:
    Take all frozen seafood and defrost in one bowl or colander. If using a bowl make sure to drain off all the liquid before using in the lasagna. I like to add 1 ladle of the sauce to the seafood, but it's not necessary.

    For the sauce:
    heat a med. saucepan over med/high heat; add approx. 1 T each olive oil and butter; cook onion til tender add garlic; add the jars of Alfredo sauce and bring to a soft boil; add 2 T oregano and 4 T parsley
    Turn off the heat and let sit while you get the rest of your ingredients together.

    For the cheese:
    Combine together 1 of the pkgs of shredded mozzarella, the ricotta, egg, parmesean cheese, add remaining parsley and oregano, If mixture is too thick add some of your sauce. I find that adding 1-2 ladlefuls of sauce usually makes it the consistency I like for spreading.

    to build the lasagna:
    start by taking a ladle of sauce and spreading over the bottom of the pan;
    next layer in the oven ready noodles, placing them close but not overlapping;
    follow with the cheese mixture;
    next add the seafood in a nice layer;
    cover with sauce and repeat ending with sauce.

    Top off with the remaining pkg of shredded cheese.
