Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups beef or vegetable broth
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • for garnish Fresh basil
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey until browned. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add diced onions and garlic, sautéing until onions are translucent.
Cooking
  1. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and broth, stirring to combine.
  2. Sprinkle in Italian seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  3. Once boiling, add the broken lasagna noodles and cook until they are tender—about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Once cooked, remove from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese for a creamy element.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded mozzarella. Garnish with fresh basil for an extra flavor punch.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute ground turkey or chicken. Use gluten-free noodles if needed. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 3 months. When reheating, add a splash of broth or water if necessary.
