Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
4 cups beef broth
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 lasagna noodles, broken into 1-inch pieces
1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.
Add chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Pour in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beef broth. Stir in basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Add the broken lasagna noodles to the simmering soup. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are al dente.
In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of the cheese mixture and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, replace ground beef with plant-based ground or lentils.
Adjust seasoning to your taste.
Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
