Description: Lasagna in soup form. Rich, cheesy, and perfect for cold nights — and way easier than making actual lasagna.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lb ground chicken or Italian sausage
- 4 c. chicken broth
- 2 c. heavy cream
- 1 ½ c. marinara sauce
- 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 c. grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
- Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Optional: Red pepper flakes, to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown the ground chicken or sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Throw in the diced onion and garlic and cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion softens.
- Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and marinara sauce and stir it all together. Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil.
- Break the lasagna noodles into pieces and add them to the pot, pushing them down into the liquid. Simmer for 10-12 minutes until the noodles are tender.
- Turn the heat down to low and stir in the parmesan until melted, then add the mozzarella and stir until smooth and creamy.
- Ladle into bowls and top with fresh basil or parsley. Add red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
