Lasagna Soup is a cozy, one-pot dish that brings together all the flavors of traditional lasagna—rich tomato broth, tender pasta, hearty meat, and melty cheese—in a comforting and easy-to-make soup.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb ground beef, Italian sausage, or a mix
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups chicken or beef broth
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Add ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
  4. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1–2 minutes.
  5. Add crushed tomatoes, broth, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir well.
  6. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
  7. Add broken lasagna noodles and cook until tender, about 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  8. In a small bowl, season ricotta cheese with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Ladle soup into bowls and top each with a scoop of ricotta, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and grated Parmesan.
  10. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Store soup and cheese toppings separately for best texture when reheating.
  • Use gluten-free noodles for a gluten-free version.
  • Add vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini for extra nutrition.
  • For a creamier soup, stir in a splash of heavy cream or mascarpone at the end.
  • Cook noodles separately if planning to store for several days to avoid mushiness.
