Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or stockpot over medium heat. Add ground meat and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  4. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the simmering broth. Cook according to package directions, usually 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Once the noodles are tender, reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and cubed cream cheese until the cream cheese is fully melted and the soup is creamy.
  6. Stir in the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese until melted and combined. Do not let the soup boil after adding the dairy.
  7. Serve the Cheesy Lasagna Soup hot, topping each bowl with a dollop of ricotta cheese.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use Italian sausage instead of ground beef.
  • You can substitute egg noodles for lasagna noodles if you prefer a softer noodle texture.
  • If the soup thickens too much upon standing, add a splash more broth or water when reheating.
