Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 6 cups beef broth
- 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté 4–5 minutes until translucent.
- Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add ground beef, cooking until browned, about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in tomato paste and cook 1–2 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Simmer 5 minutes.
- Pour in beef broth and bring to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and simmer 10–12 minutes until al dente.
- Remove from heat and stir in ricotta cheese and half the mozzarella until melted.
- Ladle soup into bowls and top with remaining mozzarella and parmesan. Garnish with basil or parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Use part-skim cheeses for a lighter version. Avoid overcooking the noodles—they’ll continue to soften in the soup. For a vegetarian option, swap ground beef with lentils or plant-based crumbles.
