    1 tsp
  • onion powder
    1 tsp
  • steak seasoning
    1 tsp
  • paprika
    ½ tsp
  • ground black pepper
    ½ tsp
  • tomato sauce
    1 can

    2 tbsp

  • water
    1 ½ c
  • uncooked bowtie pasta
    10 oz
  • ricotta cheese
    ½ c
  • Parmesan cheese for garnish
  • Parsley for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, crumble and cook the Italian sausage until browned and fully cooked. Stir in Italian seasoning, onion powder, steak seasoning, paprika, and ground black pepper to coat the sausage and release their flavors.

  2. 2

    Add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes with Italian herbs, and minced garlic to the pot. Stir well to combine all ingredients and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  3. 3

    Add the chicken broth and water to the pot with the tomato mixture. Stir to combine and bring the soup to a simmer over medium-high heat.

    Once the soup is simmering, add the uncooked bowtie pasta directly into the pot. Cook according to the pasta package instructions, usually about 10-12 minutes, until the pasta is tender but still firm to bite.

  5. 5

    Remove the pot from heat. Ladle the hot soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese. Garnish with grated Parmesan and chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy the rich lasagna flavors in every spoonful.

About this Recipe

Indulge in the Ultimate Comfort: Lasagna Soup Recipe!

Craving the rich, hearty flavors of classic lasagna but short on time? Our Lasagna Soup recipe is your delicious answer! This incredible Italian soup takes everything you love about baked lasagna – the savory Italian sausage, the robust tomato sauce, and creamy cheese – and transforms it into a cozy, quick-to-prepare bowl of pure comfort food. Perfect for busy weeknights, this one-pot soup brings dinner to the table in just 35 minutes!

This isn't just any soup; it's a celebration of Italian flavors. We start by browning flavorful Italian sausage, then build layers of taste with aromatic garlic, vibrant tomato sauce, diced tomatoes with Italian herbs, and a symphony of seasonings including Italian seasoning, onion powder, steak seasoning, paprika, and black pepper. Simmered in a rich chicken broth, the tender bowtie pasta soaks up all the incredible goodness. What truly elevates this hearty soup is the dollop of creamy ricotta cheese on top, melting into the warm broth with optional grated Parmesan and fresh parsley for an irresistible finish.

Tips for Perfect Lasagna Soup

  • Spice it Up: Adjust the heat of your Italian sausage. Use mild for a gentler flavor or hot for an extra kick to this delicious Italian sausage soup.
  • Pasta Perfection: While bowtie pasta (farfalle) is charming, you can break up actual lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces for an even more authentic lasagna feel. Penne or rotini also work wonderfully.
  • Veggie Boost: Stir in some fresh spinach or finely chopped zucchini during the last few minutes of cooking for added nutrients and color.

Serving Suggestions

Pair this delightful Lasagna Soup with a crisp green salad and a slice of warm, crusty garlic bread for a complete and utterly satisfying meal. It's truly a hug in a bowl!
