If you’ve ever craved something rich, indulgent, and packed with the fresh flavors of the sea, you’re about to meet your new obsession. Shrimp & Crab Alfredo Bake isn’t just dinner — it’s a luxurious, cheesy seafood casserole that feels like a special-occasion dish but is simple enough for a weeknight.
