Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Adds fruity richness and prevents sticking.
  • 1 pound Italian Sausage Provides protein and bold flavor; can be swapped for ground turkey or plant-based sausage.
  • 1 Onion Chopped, sweetens and adds depth; sauté until translucent.

  • 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning A mix of herbs that unifies all flavors beautifully.
  • Red Pepper Flakes Optional for a kick; adjust to your spice preference.

For the Noodles and Creaminess
  • 8 ounces Lasagna Noodles Broken into pieces to mimic traditional lasagna layers.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Enriches the broth for that heavenly silky texture.

For the Cheesy Topping
  • ½ cup Ricotta Cheese Gives creaminess and a mild tang when dolloped on top.
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese Shredded, melts beautifully for gooey pockets in the soup.
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese Adds a sharpness that beautifully balances the flavors.
To Finish

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for White Lasagna Soup
  1. In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add 1 pound of Italian sausage, breaking it into crumbles. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the sausage is browned and cooked through. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon, leaving the drippings in the pot for added flavor.
  2. In the same pot, lower the heat to medium and add one chopped onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent, stirring occasionally. Next, add 3 cloves of minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Stir in 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if desired. Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and 2 cups of water, stirring to combine. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Once boiling, add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the noodles are tender, stirring occasionally.
  5. Reduce the heat to low and gently stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, allowing it to create a silky texture. Return the cooked sausage to the pot.
  6. Introduce 4 cups of chopped spinach into the pot and stir until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season your soup with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. In a separate bowl, combine ½ cup of ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, and ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
  8. Ladle the warm White Lasagna Soup into bowls and top each serving with a generous dollop of the cheese mixture. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top.
