Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef or mild Italian sausage
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 cup whole milk ricotta
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook until soft, 3 minutes, then stir in the garlic for 30 seconds. Drain excess fat.
  2. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, broth, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
  3. Add the broken lasagna noodles and cook until tender, about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat. Stir in the ricotta, Parmesan, and mozzarella until melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and serve with extra Parmesan.

Notes

The soup thickens as it sits, so stir in a splash of broth when reheating. For the smoothest result, let the ricotta come to room temperature before adding it.
