Here's the full lasagna soup recipe - enjoy!
Ingredients:
— 2 tbs butter
— 1 white onion
— several cloves garlic, minced
— about 1 lb of Italian sausage
— 1 tbs tomato paste
— pinches of salt, pepper, oregano, and Italian seasoning
— 1 28 oz. can of crushed tomatoes
— 1 32 oz. Carton of chicken broth
— lasagna noodles
— ricotta, parmesan, and fresh basil to serve
how-to:
1. Add butter, onion, and garlic to a large pot over medium heat. Add in tomato paste and seasonings, and stir to coat.
2. Cook until the onion is soft and fragrant. Add in the sausage and break it up and stir until cooked thoroughly.
3. Add in crushed tomatoes and broth, and continue to heat until it reaches a low boil.
4. Break up the lasagna noodles into squares and cook for about a minute less than the package recommends — they will continue to soften as they sit in the soup.
5. Top with ricotta, parmesan cheese, and basil to serve!
