These Creamy Seafood Lasagna Rolls are a luxurious twist on traditional lasagna, rolled up with a rich filling of shrimp, crab meat, and cheese, then baked in creamy Alfredo sauce. I love how the seafood adds a sweet, delicate flavor that balances perfectly with the creamy, cheesy filling. It’s elegant enough for a special dinner but easy enough for a cozy night in.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love this dish because it’s impressive without being complicated. Rolling the lasagna noodles makes it feel like individual servings, and the creamy seafood mixture inside is rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The Alfredo sauce brings everything together into a bubbling, cheesy bake that’s hard to resist. Plus, I can prep it ahead of time and pop it in the oven when I’m ready to eat.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

8 lasagna noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
1 cup cooked crab meat, shredded
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 cups Alfredo sauce
½ cup spinach, chopped (optional)

Directions

I preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and cook the lasagna noodles according to the package directions until al dente. I drain them and lay them flat on a clean towel to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, I mix the chopped shrimp, crab meat, ricotta, ½ cup mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and spinach if I’m using it.
I spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
I spoon about ¼ cup of the seafood filling onto one end of each lasagna noodle, then roll it up and place it seam-side down in the dish.
I pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the top of the rolls and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
I cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then I remove the foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
I let the rolls cool for 5 minutes before serving so the filling can set slightly.

Servings and timing

This recipe serves 4 and takes about 50 minutes from start to finish—30 minutes of baking time and around 20 minutes for prep and assembly.

Variations

I sometimes swap the shrimp and crab for other seafood like scallops or cooked salmon. For extra flavor, I stir in a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of red pepper flakes. If I want a lighter version, I use low-fat ricotta and mozzarella, or swap out half of the Alfredo sauce for light cream.

storage/reheating

I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When I reheat them, I cover the dish and warm it in the oven at 350°F until heated through, or use the microwave in 30-second intervals. A splash of milk or Alfredo sauce helps keep it creamy.

FAQs

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, I assemble the rolls and store them covered in the fridge up to a day ahead. When ready, I bake them as directed, adding a few extra minutes if needed.

Can I use frozen seafood?

Absolutely. I thaw it completely, then pat it dry to avoid adding excess moisture to the filling.

What type of Alfredo sauce works best?

I use a homemade or store-bought sauce that’s thick and creamy. A garlic Alfredo adds even more flavor.

Can I freeze this dish?

Yes, I assemble and freeze before baking. I thaw overnight in the fridge, then bake as instructed. The texture holds up well.

What can I serve with this?

I like to pair it with a crisp green salad, garlic bread, or steamed asparagus to balance out the richness of the dish.

Conclusion

Creamy Seafood Lasagna Rolls are my go-to when I want something a little special without a lot of effort. The seafood and cheese filling is rich and satisfying, and the Alfredo sauce ties it all together into a baked dish that’s both comforting and elegant. Whether I’m serving it for a dinner party or treating myself to a cozy night in, it’s always a hit.
