Anyone ever made one? Any recommendations? Ill will post pics and recipe tomorrow upon completion. Just was hoping for a few ideas. Thinking of making a basic bechamel sauce, crawfish, shrimp, maybe crab, parmesan, goat cheese, havarti, mozzarella, etc

That sounds awesome. Never made it but I would probably try to use the thinnest pasta I could so that the seafood really comes out.

add some spinach to it

It's not a dish I care for, but I suggest that when you're making it, you take care not to overcook the seafood. Don't know how it would work for this dish, but for stuffed eggplant/mirliton, for example, I add the shrimp raw. They do put off some juices, but it works fine for those dishes. Not sure about the lasagna.
I would think light on the sauce and cheeses so the seafood isn't overpowered as suggested above.

yeah, i'm the same way. i've had it a few times in restaurants, and the other ingredients tend to overwhelm the seafood (sauce, cheese, etc.). could just been poor execution by those restaurants but I don't know.
good luck; I hope it turns out great...

I've made it plenty of times. Crawfish is great bc it's harder to over cook

I think deanos in lafayette does agood job with one. I usually get half seafood half regular. Good balance as the white sauce is so rich

I agree that the crawfish holds up best. Crab does also. Shrimp can be very mushy.

Ill normally toss in some garlic, spinach and such... Pretty basic though. Normally do just ricotta, mozzarella and the sauce for cheese. I think your in the right neighborhood here.

Also not a big fan, haven't had in years...But a buddy of mine who considers himself an expert on two things; 1-meatloaf and 2-seafood lasagna, swears that the best seafood lasagna he has ever had is at the Chimes....I can't say one way or the because I've never had it.
