What is Lasagna Soup?
- This easy soup has all of the rich zesty flavor of our favorite lasagna recipe in slurp-able soup.

Ingredients for Lasagna Soup
Meat – Italian sausage brings the flavor, but ground beef, pork or even ground turkey will work. Homemade meatballs or a bag of frozen meatballs can be used too!
Tomato Broth – Broth made with two kinds of canned tomatoes gives a bit of texture and a thicker consistency.
Vegetables – Onion, bell peppers, and spinach add great flavor. Feel free too add your own favorite veggies including chopped kale, sliced mushrooms, or zucchini.
Pasta – I use regular lasagna noodles and break them into larger pieces. You can use any medium pasta shape like penne, rigatoni, rotini, or shells.
Toppings – My favorite topping is ricotta cheese. Top with extra parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella, fresh parsley and basil.
How to Make Lasagna Soup
- Brown meat with onion and garlic in a large stockpot.Add broth ingredients and simmer (per the recipe below).Add lasagna pieces and simmer until tender. Stir in spinach and allow soup to rest a few minutes before serving.

What to Serve with Lasagna Soup
Cheesy garlic breadsticks are a must for soaking up the savory broth, and a simple green salad will round out this family favorite! Have it with some homemade croutons on top, or top it with shredded mozzarella cheese. Make some homemade garlic bread for dipping and dinner is served.
FLAVOR BOOST: Buy a small piece of parmesan rind and add it to the soup in Step 3! Simmer the rind and remove/discard the rind before serving.
Storing Lasagna Soup
- Keep leftover lasagna soup in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop and add fresh pasta, if desired. If making in advance, cook the pasta separately and add it to the soup just before serving. Freeze leftover soup in zippered bags for up to 3 months.
