Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pound ground beef
• 0.5 pound Italian sausage
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
• 15 ounces tomato sauce
• 6 cups chicken broth

• 8 lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and Italian sausage, breaking them into small pieces, and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease, if necessary.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.

Step 5

Season the soup with Italian seasoning, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 6

Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer and add the broken lasagna noodle pieces. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until the noodles are tender, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese to create the cheesy topping.

Step 8

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls, and top each serving with a generous scoop of the cheesy mixture. Sprinkle with fresh parsley, if using.

Step 10
