Lasagna Soup Recipe Ingredients
- Sausage and/or Beef: For this recipe, I used half hot sausage and half beef. If your crew loves spicy, go ahead and use a full pound of spicy sausage and omit the ground beef. If your crew loves a little spice and a whole lot of flavor, this cheesy lasagna soup recipe is the soup for you!
- Tomatoes: For this recipe, I used a large, 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes and a small can of tomato paste. You can use a jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce if you'd like but you'll need to adjust the Italian seasonings if you decide to do that.
- Pasta: Have some fun with this one. In this recipe, I used some bowtie pasta but you can use about 8 large lasagna noodles, broken in pieces, cheese tortellini, cheese ravioli, fresh or dried, or just about any shape of pasta you like. I used about a half pound of pasta. This would also be a great recipe to use up some already cooked pasta, Just reduce the boiling time from about 10 min to 2 min after all the ingredients are added.
- Cheese: This one pot lasagna soup recipe calls for a bit of cream and some parmesan cheese. Instead of parmesan cheese, you can top this lasagna soup with some mozzarella cheese too! That would definitely be delicious!

How to Make Lasagna Soup
- Cook the onions and garlic. Add the olive oil and onion to a large pot on medium heat. Cook while stirring occasionally until the onion is lightly golden brown. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
- Add the ground hot sausage. Using a wooden spoon to break the meat up into small pieces, cook until the meat is no longer pink. Stir in ⅓ cup of water if needed.
- Add seasonings, tomatoes, and broth. In the same pot, add the Italian seasonings, salt and pepper, crushed tomatoes, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil.
- Add pasta and boil. Boil for 10 minutes or until the noodles are "al dente" (chewy but not mushy).
- Finish with heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Finally add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Reduce heat and stir until the parmesan cheese is melted. Spoon into bowls and add a tablespoon of ricotta cheese and a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese.
- Serve. Garnish with fresh basil if desired. Enjoy!
