A cozy and hearty soup that captures all the classic flavors of lasagna in a simple one-pot meal. Loaded with seasoned meat, tender pasta, rich tomato broth, and creamy melted cheese.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups beef or chicken broth
  • 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add ground beef or sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart. Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. Stir in diced onion and cook 3–4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
  4. Add oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and tomato paste. Cook 1 minute to deepen flavor.
  5. Pour in crushed tomatoes and broth. Bring to a boil.
  6. Add broken lasagna noodles. Reduce heat and simmer 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender.
  7. Stir in half of the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan until melted.
  8. Ladle into bowls and top each serving with a spoonful of ricotta, remaining mozzarella, Parmesan, and fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Add extra broth when reheating as noodles absorb liquid.
  • Use ground turkey for a lighter option.
  • Store refrigerated for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze up to 2 months, though pasta may soften.
  • Short pasta shapes can substitute for lasagna noodles.
