Ingredients

Units
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage, mild or hot
  • 3/4 cup sweet onion, diced
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 8 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 13-15 uncooked lasagna noodles, broken into smaller pieces
  • Toppings: ricotta, shredded mozzarella cheese,

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, like this one, over medium heat, heat the olive oil for 1 minute. Add the ground sausage, onion, and garlic. Sauté until browned and cooked through, breaking up with a spoon as you go— about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and let it cook for 1 minute.
  2. Add the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, salt, pepper, spices and stir to combine. Increase to high heat and bring to a boil.
  3. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and cook for 12-15 minutes until the noodles are cooked through, stirring a few times to keep the noodles from sticking together. Add additional salt and pepper to taste.
  4. To serve, spoon the soup into bowls with a dollop of ricotta and shredded mozzarella cheese, if preferred. Leftovers stay fresh in the refrigerator for 5 days.

Notes

  1. Make Ahead Instructions: This soup stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The soup can also be frozen, once cooled, for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and heat on the stove or in the microwave.
  2. Chicken Broth: I prefer to use low-sodium chicken broth. If you're using regular, reduce salt slightly and taste at the end.
  3. Meat: If you're not a fan of sausage, you can use beef or turkey— I've used each and the recipe is just as delicious!
