I've been making this recipe for over a year now. I got it from the Taste of Home website. It's the best seafood lasagna I've ever had. A little time consuming but well worth it however, I wouldn't recommend using precooked shrimp-they tend to get hard during the baking time. This has a wonderful flavor and it's very filling. Thanks for posting it.

Great dinner for a party. <br/>Some simple mods: I substituted 8 oz. refrigerated pasteurized crab claws (will not get "stringy" and good flavor) for the fake crab and Penzy's Seafood bullion for the clam juice and chicken broth (I had "non-meat eaters). I also added a teaspoon of Coleman's dry mustard (I usually use some dry mustard or cayenne in my white sauces) for a bit of zip.
