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.
