Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb mild Italian sausage casings removed
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened and cubed
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 5 oz fresh spinach
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste
  • Ricotta cheese, for serving
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for serving

Equipment

  • 1 Large Dutch oven or pot
  • 1 Wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. In a large Dutch oven or pot, cook the Italian sausage over medium-high heat until browned. Drain any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
  4. Add the broken lasagna noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente.
  5. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and softened cream cheese until the cream cheese is fully melted and the broth is smooth.
  6. Stir in the Parmesan and mozzarella cheese until melted. Add the fresh spinach and stir until wilted.
  7. Ladle into bowls and serve immediately, garnished with a dollop of ricotta and fresh parsley.

Notes

Tip 1: For the creamiest soup, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Tip 2: Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for a smoother, quicker melt into the broth.
Tip 3: Don't overcook the noodles, as they will continue to soften in the hot soup.
