This crab bake is super rich, comforting, and indulgent! It’s loaded with lump crabmeat, fresh shrimp, and plenty of punchy Parmesan cheese, all served between layers of lasagna noodles. Just like a seafood lasagna! Try it with a light salad and bread for a seafood twist on a classic Italian favorite!
