Directions

Start by heating up 1 T of oil in your dutch oven pan. You'll want to do this at medium-heat. Once the pan is hot, add the ground beef and the diced onion. Use your wooden spoon to crumble up the beef and make sure to cook the beef until it's browned all the way. You should see no pink at all in the meat.

Once the meat is browned, add the garlic and cook for 1 minute of time. Drain off any excess fat from the cooked beef.

Stir in the chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, sugar, salt, pasta sauce, and pepper.
- 4
Let the mixture boil and then turn down the heat to simmer for 30 minutes.

As the pasta sauce mixture is cooking, start to cook the pasta noodles. Read the directions on the side of the lasagna noodles box and cook them until they're al dente. Once the noodles are cooked, cut them into bite-sized pieces using kitchen scissors and put them into the soup at the end of the cooking time.

Serve with cheese and other toppings as a garnish.

About this Recipe
Craving the comforting flavors of classic lasagna but without the fuss of layering? This Easy Lasagna Soup recipe is your answer, delivering all that beloved taste in one hearty bowl, simplifying dinner without sacrificing flavor.
What makes this recipe truly stand out is its clever approach to recreating a classic. It's an incredibly easy way to whip up a batch of Lasagna Soup, blending rich, savory ground beef with a robust tomato base and tender pasta. The beauty lies in its one-pot convenience, transforming a time-intensive dish into a weeknight-friendly marvel that doesn't skimp on authenticity.
Prepare for a deeply satisfying and wonderfully textured experience. You'll enjoy a rich, aromatic broth, simmered with lean ground beef, fragrant garlic, and a generous dose of Italian seasoning. The tomato base, built from pasta sauce and crushed tomatoes, creates a comforting foundation. Scattered throughout are pieces of tender lasagna noodles, perfectly cooked to capture all the savory goodness. Each spoonful offers a delightful interplay of meaty depth and tangy tomato, crowned with creamy ricotta, melted mozzarella, and sharp Parmesan cheeses, brightened by fresh parsley.
This versatile soup invites customization. For a touch of heat, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes when you sauté the onion and garlic. You can easily swap the lean ground beef for another ground meat like Italian sausage or even ground turkey for a different flavor profile. If you prefer a richer tomato flavor, a bit of tomato paste browned with the onion can deepen the base. Feel free to experiment with your favorite fresh herbs beyond parsley, like a sprinkle of fresh basil before serving.
Serve this warming soup as a comforting family dinner on a cool evening or when you're simply in the mood for Italian-inspired comfort. It’s perfect alongside a simple green salad or some warm, crusty bread for dipping into that rich broth.
