For an even richer flavor, consider using a homemade marinara sauce.
If fresh crabmeat is unavailable, high-quality canned crabmeat can be substituted.
Don't overcook the spaghetti – it should be al dente as it will continue to cook in the oven.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the sauce, such as bell peppers or zucchini.
Allowing the lasagna to rest after baking helps it to set and makes it easier to slice.
