Lasagna Soup
Description
This Lasagna Soup captures the essence of lasagna without the layered effort. The recipe begins by sautéing diced onion and garlic in olive oil, followed by browning a mix of Italian sausage and ground beef seasoned with Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Marinara sauce, beef broth, and crushed tomatoes are added to create a flavorful base, brought to a simmer. Broken lasagna noodles are cooked directly in the simmering soup until tender yet firm to the bite. Reducing the heat, heavy cream is stirred in along with shredded mozzarella, Romano, and Parmesan cheeses, melting into a creamy, rich broth that coats the noodles and meat thoroughly.
The soup offers a balanced texture with tender pasta pieces and a savory, hearty broth complemented by the Italian seasoning and cheeses. It can be ladled into bowls and finished with fresh parsley, extra Parmesan shavings, and a dollop of ricotta cheese if desired for more creaminess.
