Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, for topping
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ground beef or sausage and cook until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the simmering broth. Cook according to the noodle package directions, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the noodles are tender (about 10-12 minutes).
  6. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined.
  7. Stir in the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese until melted and the soup is creamy. Do not let the soup boil after adding the cream.
  8. Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use Italian sausage instead of ground beef.
  • If you prefer a white lasagna soup, substitute the crushed tomatoes and tomato sauce with 3 cups of Alfredo sauce and 2 cups of chicken broth.
  • You can use oven-ready lasagna noodles, but check the package for exact cooking times, as they may absorb more liquid.
