Ingredients
For the soup:
1 lb ground beef
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/2 yellow onion, diced
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp kosher salt, plus more as needed
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
14 oz can crushed tomatoes
32 oz chicken broth, more if needed
1 cup water
2 tsp tomato paste
6 oz lasagna noodles, broken up
1 cup frozen chopped spinach
1/4 cup heavy cream
For serving:
Ricotta cheese
4 oz mozzarella cheese, cut in slices
Parmesan cheese, optional
Instructions
In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook ground beef until browned, breaking it apart. Drain excess grease.
Add garlic, onion, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes until onions are soft and fragrant.
Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste. Stir in broken lasagna noodles. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in spinach and heavy cream. Simmer uncovered for 5 more minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Place mozzarella slices at the bottom of serving bowls, ladle hot soup over, then top with ricotta and optional parmesan. Serve hot.
Notes
Add more broth or water if the soup thickens too much.
Use Italian sausage instead of ground beef for extra flavor.
For a vegetarian version, omit beef and use vegetable broth.
Leftovers taste even better the next day!
