Ingredients

Scale

For the Soup

  • 1 lb ground beef

  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced

  • ½ yellow onion, diced

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp onion powder

  • ¼ tsp dried basil

  • ½ 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 (add more if needed)

  • 1 cup water

  • 2 tsp tomato paste

  • 6 oz lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces

  • 1 cup frozen chopped spinach

  • ¼ cup heavy cream

For Serving

  • Ricotta cheese

  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese, sliced

  • Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

1. Brown the Beef
In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain excess grease. For deeper flavor, allow the beef to develop crispy brown bits before draining.

2. Sauté Aromatics
Add minced garlic, diced onion, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring often until onions are soft and fragrant.

3. Add Liquids and Noodles
Pour in crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste. Stir well, then add broken lasagna noodles. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until noodles begin to soften.

4. Stir in Spinach and Cream
Add frozen chopped spinach and heavy cream. Simmer uncovered for 5 more minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt or pepper as needed.

5. Assemble and Serve
Place a slice of mozzarella in the bottom of each bowl. Ladle the hot soup over the cheese to let it melt beautifully. Top with a spoonful of ricotta and a sprinkle of Parmesan.

Notes

  • For extra richness, replace half the broth with beef broth.

  • Add crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat.

  • Substitute ground turkey or Italian sausage for variety.

  • The soup thickens as it cools—add a splash of broth or water when reheating.
