Cottage Cheese Seafood Lasagna

"Mmmm...creamy seafood lasagna with a rich white sauce. I sometimes add broccoli just to give some color (and sneak in those "Five A Day"). I think spinach or zucchini would also be a wonderful addition. YUMMY!!"

  1. This is heaven in a dish! I used half cottage cheese and half ricotta, adding an egg, salt and freshly ground pepper, and parsley, then mixed together in my blender and poured in layers between the noodles. When baked it firmed up and was a delicious layer in with the seafood layers and cream sauce. We all LOVED this and it is now on my list to be made again for my niece's graduation party! Thanks Manda for this one!
     
  2. This was the best thing I think I've ever cooked! I added finely diced carrots and broccoli, and put seafood and veggies in each layer, not just the top one ... The lasagna was smooth and creamy and kept it's shape well. It was pretty easy to make too ... my guests LOVED it!
     
  3. Used fresh shrimp, tilapia & crab that I cut up into small pieces and gently boiled for a short time with seafood spices in the water. Did not use the cottage cheese (my family preference) and crumbled the seafood on each layer. Turned out wonderfully and will definitely make again for a special occasion.
     
  4. Very good! Will add spinach and mushrooms next time.
     
  5. It seems overwhelming seeing all of the ingredients, but it is actually a very simple recipe and quite quick for a lasagna. It was very delicious as well!

I am a single gal, living on my own; currently working as an Occupational Therapist & living in Cumberland, MD. (It is "God's Country" out here...beautiful!) I LOVE to cook and bake, and love anything that looks, tastes, smells, or even closely resembles a veggie. I LOVE moo-cows, and therefore, cannot bring myself to eat any part of the adorable critters (i.e. NO RED MEAT!!) I love the outdoors, and pride myself on being the master griller on the fire pit. My mother's side of the family is 100% Polish, so I have an inborn passion for cooking...unfortunately, along with that comes a love of eating, too!! But, hey..u only live once, so I say "EAT, DRINK, and BE MERRY!!!"
