Recipe for One Pot Lasagna Soup

Components:

1. One pound (450 grams) of Italian sausage or ground beef
2. One chopped onion
3. Three minced garlic cloves
4. One 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes
5. Four cups of vegetable or chicken stock
6. Two cups of raw pasta, like rotini or campanile
7. Two teaspoons of Italian seasoning
8. One teaspoon of salt
9. Half a teaspoon of black pepper
10. Ricotta cheese, one cup
11. One cup of mozzarella cheese, shredded
12. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil.
13. Grated Parmesan cheese for serving is optional.

Directions:

• Cook the Meat: Brown the ground beef or sausage over medium heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. If necessary, drain extra fat.
• Sauté Vegetables: Cook the chopped onion for approximately five minutes, or until it is tender. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• Add Tomatoes and Broth: Add the broth and crushed tomatoes. Mix to blend.
• Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat the mixture until it boils.
• Cook the Pasta: Add the raw pasta after it has boiled. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook the pasta as directed on the package, which is typically 8 to 10 minutes, or until it is tender.
• After the pasta has done, mix in half of the mozzarella and the ricotta until they are creamy and well blended.
• To serve, spoon the soup into bowls and sprinkle the leftover mozzarella cheese on top. Add some fresh parsley or basil as a garnish, and if you’d like, some Parmesan cheese.
• Savor: Warm up and savor your cozy one-pot lasagna soup!
