This simple recipe is full of flavor, and is a classic favorite is soup form. Make sure you add this Lasagna Soup to your menu plan. You are going to love it!
My husband LOVES Lasagna. It’s been his favorite meal since I’ve known him, and what he requests every birthday.
Since you all know how much of a soup fan I am, I had to turn his favorite meal into a warm hearty soup. I can make soup all year long, especially this awesome Lasagna Soup.
How to make Lasagna Soup:
In a large pot, heat your oil, then sauté your onions and garlic. Cook the ground beef next. Once the beef is cooked add in all the other ingredients except for the mozzarella cheese and half and half.
After the soup has simmered for about 25 minutes, add in the half and half. Stir to mix for a few more minutes. Serve topped with mozzarella cheese.
Ingredient Notes:
- Olive Oil: I prefer EVOO, but if you do not have it, you can use whatever oil you have on hand.
- Ground Beef: I used a lean ground beef for this recipe.
- Onion: A yellow onion that has been diced.
- Minced Garlic
- Can of Crushed Tomatoes
- Tomato Paste
- Chicken Broth: Use low sodium option if you prefer.
- Seasoning: When seasoning you can add more or less of any that I used to make it taste the way you like. I used Italian seasoning, dried basil, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Lasagna Noodles: broken into bite sized pieces.
- Half and Half: I buy this in my store in the dairy section. If you can’t find it you can use half milk and half cream to creature your own.
- Mozzarella Cheese: Shredded for the topping.
- Optional: Fresh Parsley for garnish.
Directions:
Step One – Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté onion and cook together until onions are translucent then add garlic.
Add ground beef and cook and crumble until browned.
Step Two – Add crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, and chicken broth to the pot. Season with Italian seasoning, dried basil, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
Add lasagna noodles and bring soup to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer and allow to cook for 20-25 minutes until noodles are tender, stirring often so noodles don’t stick.
Step Three – Add half and half. Stir until well combined.
Serve topped with shredded mozzarella cheese.
What to serve with this Lasagna Soup Recipe:
My kids love this soup. We honestly can eat it by itself, but when I’m feeding my three hungry boys, I sometimes have to make something extra to fill them up.
Garlic Bread is my top choice along with a Caesar Salad.
Or you could try one of these options. I love making these Butter Swim Biscuits or Mini Cornbread to serve with any soup I make.
Can I freeze this soup?
Yes, lasagna soup is really simple to freeze. Follow the steps, but do not add in the lasagna noodles or half and half.
Once it’s done allow it to cool completely then add it to a large freezer bag or into individual bags are jars for single serving.
Freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to serve allow it to thaw. Heat on the stovetop and once hot add in the lasagna noodles and half and half and cook for 10 minutes.
Make this soup in a Slow Cooker:
This soup is really easy to make in a slow cooker as well as on the stovetop.
If you don’t think you have time on your busy day to make this recipe, add all the ingredients except the lasagna noodles and half and half to a slow cooker and then finish when it’s dinner time!
When you have about 30 minutes left before serving, add in your noodles and the half and half to the crockpot.
