Hearty Three Cheese Lasagna Soup
This Three Cheese Lasagna Soup brings all the classic Italian dinner feelings to your table in a comforting bowl. It has a rich tomato base, seasoned ground meat, and three kinds of cheese.
You’ll find broken lasagna noodles in every spoonful, making it a hearty and satisfying meal that’s much easier than baking a whole lasagna. 
Key Ingredients & Quick Tips
- Ground Meat Choice: I like ground beef or Italian sausage for this soup. Both add great flavor to the tomato sauce.
- Three Cheeses: Ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan make this soup special. Ricotta adds creamy pockets, while mozzarella melts wonderfully.
- Noodle Prep: Break your lasagna noodles into smaller, bite-sized pieces before you add them to the soup. This makes them easier to eat.

How to Make This Lasagna Soup
Step 1: Cook Meat and Veggies
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add ground beef or sausage and cook until it’s browned. Drain any extra fat. Stir in the chopped onion and cook until it’s soft, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and tomato paste, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 2: Simmer the Soup Base
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken or beef broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it cook for at least 15 minutes. This lets the flavors blend well.
Step 3: Add Noodles and Cheese
Add the broken lasagna noodles to the simmering soup. Cook until the noodles are tender, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the ricotta cheese in dollops, then add the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cook until the cheeses are melted and creamy.
Step 4: Finish and Serve
Season the soup with salt and pepper to your liking. Stir in the fresh chopped basil right before serving. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and basil if you wish.
📝 Final Note on Storage
Store any leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The noodles will soak up more liquid over time, so you might need to add a splash of broth when reheating.
Creamy White Lasagna Soup with Chicken
If you love creamy dishes, this White Creamy Lasagna Soup is for you. It’s a comforting chicken soup with a rich, velvety broth, broken lasagna noodles, and fresh spinach.
This recipe brings a different kind of lasagna comfort to your bowl, perfect for a cozy night in. It’s a wonderful alternative to traditional red sauce lasagna. 
Key Ingredients & Quick Tips
- Chicken Choice: Use cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced. A rotisserie chicken works great here for a quick meal.
- Creamy Base: Heavy cream and a little milk make this soup wonderfully smooth. Don’t skip these for the best texture.
- Add Greens: Fresh spinach adds color and a light, fresh taste. Stir it in at the very end so it just wilts.

Step 2: Build the Soup Base

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Ladle the creamy soup into bowls and serve hot, with extra Parmesan on top if you like.
📝 Final Note on Serving
This creamy soup is wonderful with a side of crusty bread for soaking up every last bit. You can also add other vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers with the onion.
