Ingredients

Scale

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 to taste

  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 1 (14 oz) can crushed tomatoes

  • 32 oz chicken broth (more if needed)

  • 1 cup water

  • 2 tsp tomato paste

  • 6 oz lasagna noodles, broken into pieces

  • 1 cup frozen chopped spinach

  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

For Serving:

  • Ricotta cheese

  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese, sliced

  • Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  • Brown the Beef:
    In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess grease. For a richer flavor, let the beef brown slightly before draining.

  • Sauté Aromatics:
    Add garlic, onion, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper to the beef. Stir and cook for 5 minutes over medium-low heat until fragrant and the onion softens.

  • Simmer the Soup:
    Pour in crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste. Stir well. Add broken lasagna noodles and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, until noodles begin to soften.

  • Add Spinach and Cream:
    Stir in frozen spinach and heavy cream. Cook uncovered for another 5 minutes until spinach is heated through and the soup becomes creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning.

  • Serve and Enjoy:
    Place a slice of mozzarella in the bottom of each bowl. Ladle hot soup over it, then top with a dollop of ricotta and sprinkle with Parmesan if desired.

Notes

  • Make it lighter: Use lean ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.

  • Boost the veggies: Add diced zucchini, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra texture and nutrients.

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently over low heat, adding a splash of broth if needed.
