ONE POT LASAGNA SOUP
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1 lb Ground Beef 🥩
- 1 lb Ground Italian Sausage 🌭
- 10 Lasagna Noodles (broken into bite-sized pieces) 🍝
- 1 Onion, diced 🧅
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced 🧄
- 24 oz Marinara sauce or crushed tomatoes 🍅
- 6 cups Chicken or beef broth 🥣
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning 🌿
- For Serving: Ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and fresh basil 🧀🍃
👩🍳 Instructions
- Brown the Meat: In a large pot or slow cooker, brown the ground beef and Italian sausage until fully cooked. Drain any excess grease. 🥩🔥🥇
- Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot, cooking until softened and fragrant. 🧅🧄✨
- Build the Broth: Stir in your favorite marinara sauce, broth, and Italian seasoning. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. 🍅🥣🌊
- Add the Noodles: Drop in the broken lasagna noodles. As seen in the pot, these will nestle into the rich red broth alongside the savory meat. 🍝🤝✅
- Simmer to Perfection: Cook until the noodles are tender (usually about 10–12 minutes). Make sure to stir occasionally so the noodles don’t stick to the bottom! ⏲️📈🔥
- The Cheesy Finish: Ladle the hot soup into bowls. While it’s still steaming, add a dollop of ricotta and a sprinkle of mozzarella so it gets perfectly melty. 🧀🤤💎
- Serve: Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy the most indulgent soup of your life! 🍽️😋🧤✨
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The “One Pot” Secret: As shown in the photo, letting the noodles cook directly in the soup allows them to soak up all that incredible meat and tomato flavor! 🥘🛡️💎
- The “Noodle” Hack: If you’re planning on having leftovers, cook the noodles separately! This prevents them from soaking up all the broth while sitting in the fridge overnight. 🍝🎯✅
