Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ground Italian sausage (sweet or spicy)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 28 oz crushed tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, just until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes to deepen the flavor.
  4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Add the dried Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir everything together and bring to a gentle boil.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. Once the pasta is tender, taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese, a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella, and chopped parsley.

Notes

[‘Don’t overcook the pasta; keep an eye on the noodles as they simmer to avoid them becoming mushy.’, ‘Brown the sausage properly to add depth of flavor to the soup base.’, ‘Customize the spice level by using spicy Italian sausage or adding red pepper flakes.’, ‘For make-ahead, cook the soup without the noodles and add them when reheating to avoid sogginess.’, ‘Stir the pasta occasionally while it cooks to prevent sticking.’]
