Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes 28 oz
  • 4 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 2 cups lasagna noodles broken into pieces
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Topping
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil chopped

Method
 

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef or sausage until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, lasagna noodles, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the noodles are tender.
  5. While the soup simmers, prepare the topping by mixing the ricotta cheese with half of the mozzarella cheese and chopped basil in a bowl.
  6. Once the noodles are cooked, ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a generous scoop of the ricotta mixture and remaining mozzarella cheese.
  7. Garnish with extra basil if desired and serve hot.
