Method
- Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Stir everything together, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Let the soup simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking.
- Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- While the soup simmers, combine the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley in a small bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Ladle the hot Lasagna Soup into bowls. Top each serving with a generous dollop of the cheesy ricotta mixture. Garnish with more fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
Tip 1: For best results, store the soup and the cheese topping in separate containers to prevent the noodles from getting soggy.
Tip 2: Feel free to substitute the lasagna noodles with mafalda, campanelle, or another short, sturdy pasta that can hold up in the soup.
