Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the mozzarella, ricotta, and basil. Serve immediately.

Notes

Feel free to add a combo of beef and sausage or use your favorite canned marinara or tomato sauce.
If you don't have time to make a sauce, I suggest using Rao's tomato sauce or Marinara (not sponsored). It's the only one I use. It's has the perfect blend of seasonings so there's no need to add additional seasonings. I usually just add a teaspoon of sugar and that's it.
