Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Aromatics

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp kosher salt, plus more as needed
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Liquids and Base

  • 14 oz can crushed tomatoes
  • 32 oz chicken broth, more if needed
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tsp tomato paste

Pasta and Vegetables

  • 6 oz lasagna noodles, broken up (about 2-inch pieces)
  • 1 cup frozen chopped spinach

Dairy

  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Ricotta cheese, for serving
  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese, cut in slices
  • Parmesan cheese, optional for topping

Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and cook until it is well-browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Allow the beef to develop some crispy browned bits if desired, then drain any excess grease from the pot to keep the soup from being too oily.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the minced garlic, diced onion, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, dried oregano, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the browned beef. Stir and cook over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, letting the onions soften and the herbs become fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent burning the garlic.
  3. Add Liquids and Pasta: Pour in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste. Break the lasagna noodles into roughly 2-inch pieces and add them to the pot. Stir to combine all ingredients. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes until noodles begin to soften.
  4. Incorporate Spinach and Cream: Stir in the frozen chopped spinach and heavy cream into the simmering soup. Continue cooking uncovered on low for about 5 minutes until the spinach is heated through and the soup turns creamy. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
  5. Serve with Cheese: Place a slice of mozzarella cheese in the bottom of each serving bowl. Ladle the hot lasagna soup over the cheese to allow it to melt. Top with a dollop of ricotta cheese and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese if using, for that authentic lasagna flavor in every bite.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute ground beef with plant-based meat or omit and add extra vegetables.
  • You can use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth to make it vegetarian.
  • If lasagna noodles are not available, use broken regular pasta noodles as a substitute.
  • Adjust salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  • Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes can add a subtle heat to the soup.
