This easy lasagna soup recipe brings all the coziness and warmth you crave, with less dishes and quicker prep time.
Heat olive oil in a large pot or large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the diced yellow onion and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
Brown the Meat
Add the lean ground beef and chicken sausage (or your choice of ground meat), and cook until mostly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Break the meat apart with a spoon as it cooks.
Stir in the crushed garlic, seasonings and tomato paste, cooking for another 1-2 minutes to bring out the flavors.
Add the Liquids
Pour in the crushed tomatoes, and marinara sauce. Stir in the Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of black pepper. Add in the chicken broth,
Cook the Pasta
Break the uncooked lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces and add them to the pot. Cover and let them cook in the broth on medium heat for about 18-20 minutes until al dente or your desired doneness. Stir occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking together. If the soup gets too thick, add extra chicken broth or beef broth to thin it out.
Finish and Serve
Once the noodles are tender, taste and adjust the seasoning. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with a dollop of ricotta, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and a garnish of fresh basil or parsley.
Serve with garlic bread or crusty bread on the side for soaking up the delicious broth.
