    Have not cooked this but will. I live in the south and the seafood would not be cooked. Shrimp and scallops do not take very long to cook. Crab meat that you buy in the store will be cooked and will just need to be heated up. Looking forward to cooking. - 2/4/11

    i love collaborative meals like this that i can save and portion out for later... same as already asked, but I'll ask again! Is the seafood already cooked before it goes in? - 2/4/11

    Mushrooms were not mentioned in the ingredient list but they are mentioned in the directions. Are there mushrooms in this recipe? How much and how prepared? - 9/13/10
