    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

    1 large garlic clove crushed
    1/4 cup dry white wine
    2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Press spinach between paper towels until barely moist; set aside.

    Place flour in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring after 15 minutes. Spoon flour into a large saucepan; gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk. Stir in salt and next 4 ingredients; cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly. Add wine; cook 1 additional minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup cheese and scallops. Cool slightly; stir in basil, lemon juice, crabmeat, and egg.

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spoon 1/4 cup seafood sauce into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles in a single layer over seafood sauce; top with one-third spinach. Spoon one-third seafood sauce over spinach. Repeat layers, ending with seafood sauce. Combine remaining cheese and paprika; sprinkle cheese mixture over lasagna. Cover and bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Bake, uncovered, 10 additional minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

    Yield: 9 servings.
