GRAND MARNIER SEAFOOD CASSEROLE

Grand Marnier Seafood Casserole image

A wonderful seafood casserole, well worth the little bit of effort to make a white sauce. A great Lenten dish, and suitable for company. Modified from the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo 50th Anniv. cookbook. Serve with a salad and hot French bread. Can be frozen.
