Variation Ideas

• Change Pasta – Feel free to use other type of pasta such as bow-tie pasta or penne pasta.
• Meat Variation – You can make this lasagna soup with ground turkey instead of ground beef. We have even made it with half Italian Sausage and half Ground Beef.
• Heavy Cream – If you prefer a creamy texture, add in heavy cream. This also helps to thicken the consistency as well.
• Tomatoes – If you are do not have crushed tomatoes, add in diced tomatoes, marinara sauce and tomato paste.
• Seasoning – Substitute the dried seasoning with Italian Seasoning for an easy substitute. We have even added in ½ tsp of fresh parsley, fresh basil, and red pepper flakes for a spicy flavor.
• Veggies – This is a great soup to sneak in vegetables. We like to add in a cup of chopped bell peppers and fresh spinach towards the end of cooking time for amazing taste.

How to Make Lasagna Soup

Step 1 – In a large Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain any excess fat.

Step 2 – Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for about 5 minutes until the onion is softened.

Step 3 – Stir in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, dried oregano, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 4 – Add the broken bite-sized pieces lasagna noodles and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.

Step 5 – In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, egg, ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese, and ½ cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Set aside.

Step 6 – Once the noodles are cooked, stir the cheese mixture into the soup. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the mixture is heated through and fully incorporated. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with the remaining shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese and a dollop of ricotta cheese.. Enjoy! 

Expert Tips

• Cooking Noodles in Soup – Be careful not to overcook the noodles in the soup, as they can get too soft. Check for tenderness around 8 minutes.
• Large Pot Recommendation – We recommend cooking Lasagna soup in a Dutch Oven or a large pot to hold the large serving of soup. Continue stirring the soup as it cooks to make sure the soup is mixed together.
• Noodles – You can easily break the noodles up by hand. They noodles do not have to be the perfect size.
