  • 1 Chef's knife
  • 1 Cutting board
  • 1 measuring cup
  • 1 measuring spoon set

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 14.5 ounces
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles broken into pieces
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with the wooden spoon.
  • Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent.
  • Pour in the chicken broth, marinara sauce, and diced tomatoes, then stir well.
  • Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
  • Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and cook until al dente.
  • Stir in the ricotta cheese until well combined.
  • Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let flavors meld.

Notes

For best results, ensure that the lasagna noodles are broken into uniform pieces so they cook evenly. If you prefer a thicker consistency, allow the soup to simmer a bit longer to reduce slightly. Adjust seasoning to taste and feel free to add some red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
