Anyone who knows me, know that I love me some soup! I can eat soup every day, all year around too. This easy lasagna soup is one of my favorite meals to make during the winter. It tastes just like lasagna but just in a soup form. So what’s in this soup, you might ask? Well it contains, broken lasagna sheets, tomato sauce, ground beef onions, garlic, oregano, parsley, basil, crushed red pepper, a bit of sugar, seasonings, Parmesan, heavy cream, ricotta cheese and mozzarella cheese. There’s nothing like warming up to a hot bowl of soup topped with your favorite cheese. I love topping mine with shaved parmesan cheese, mozzarella and ricotta cheese and a bit of parsley for garnish. You can use fresh basil if you like.
HOW TO MAKE ONE POT LASAGNA SOUP
The ingredients may seem long, but you’ll basically be adding all the ingredients to the pot, so it’s pretty quick process. I always prep my ingredients first, which makes for smooth and easy cooking. Basically, in a large pot saute the onions. Add the minced garlic then add the ground beef. Cook the ground beef until it has browned. Add the chicken broth, the tomato sauce, heavy whipping cream, the seasonings and a bit of the parmesan cheese.
Once the it’s done, top with a big dollop of ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella and shaved parmesan and watch the the cheeses melt into the beef, noodles and saucy soup. If you love tomato based soups then you will love this one. It’s so darn good! Just make sure you serve this soup with some cheesy garlic bread.
When I’m out of ricotta cheese and I’m craving this lasagne soup, I make it homemade. Here is the recipe I always use.
