Instructions
Lasagna Soup
Add sausage, ground beef, and sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and break apart until browned. Drain off excess grease and add to a 6-quart slow cooker.
Add garlic, Italian seasoning, black pepper, salt, tomato paste, chicken broth, and diced tomatoes. Stir until well combined.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
Thirty minutes before cook time is done. Break up lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces. Add noodles and heavy cream. Stir and continue to cook.
Cheese Topping
Meanwhile, add ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese to a medium mixing bowl. Mix together with a fork and set aside.
Add Lasagna soup to bowls and top with cheese topping. Enjoy!
Notes
To get the perfect bite in every spoonful, try to break the pasta into equal-sized pieces.
If you’re using regular beef broth, start with a little salt and then add in more if needed, towards the end.
To prevent overcooking the noodles, add them to the slow cooker just 30 minutes before the cooking time is complete.
Stir the soup occasionally during the cooking process to ensure that all the flavors come together properly.
Don't skip the heavy cream – it adds an amazing velvety creaminess to the lasagna soup, enhancing the overall texture and taste.
To lend the soup an authentic Italian flavor, tear a few fresh basil leaves and top them over your bowl of soup. You can also add some red pepper flakes if you want to.
