How to Make the Recipe

1. In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Make sure to drain any excess fat to keep it light and healthy.
2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. The aroma will be heavenly!
3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring this mixture to a boil.
4. Once boiling, add the broken lasagna noodles. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
5. Serve hot, topped with dollops of ricotta, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy every spoonful!

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your lasagna soup turns out perfectly:

• Feel free to swap out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
• If you love a bit of spice, add some red pepper flakes for a kick!
• For a creamier texture, stir in a splash of heavy cream just before serving.
• Don’t have ricotta? Cream cheese works as a great substitute!
• Make it vegetarian by omitting the meat and adding more veggies like spinach or mushrooms.

How to Serve

This 30-minute meal is perfect on its own, but you can elevate your dining experience with a few simple sides:

• Serve with a fresh garden salad for a refreshing contrast.
• Pair it with garlic bread for that classic Italian feel.
• Top with extra cheese and fresh herbs for a gourmet touch.

Make Ahead and Storage

If you’re planning ahead, this lasagna soup can be made in advance! Here’s how to store it:

• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• To freeze, let the soup cool completely, then transfer it to freezer-safe containers. It can be frozen for up to 3 months.
• When ready to enjoy, simply thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stove until warmed through.
