Notes: Meg, like all of us, enjoyed hosting and attending dinner parties with all of her (many) good friends. Who amongst us didn't know that seafood was her favorite. Consequently, I baked this casserole on more than one occasion when she and Buddy would join us for dinner. No surprise that I would usually increase the amount of shrimp AND add scallops. Champagne was the drink of choice and pairs perfectly with this. The recipe is flexible with both the seafood and the spicing. Enjoy!
