Lasagna soup is a delightful and hearty dish that combines the comforting flavors of traditional lasagna with the ease and warmth of a soup. It's perfect for those days when you crave the classic Italian taste but want something a bit lighter and quicker to prepare. This recipe will guide you through the steps to create a delicious pot of lasagna soup using a variety of flavorful ingredients.
Instructions:
- In a large pot, heat the flaxseed oil over medium heat. Add the sliced Vienna sausage and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth, water, and pasta sauce. Stir well to combine.
- Add the bay leaves, a dash of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- While the soup is simmering, cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, grated parmesan, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley. Mix well and set aside.
- After the soup has simmered for 20 minutes, remove the bay leaves. Add the cooked pasta to the soup and stir to combine.
- Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese, allowing it to melt into the soup.
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of the ricotta-parmesan mixture.
- Garnish with roughly chopped fresh basil leaves.
- Serve the lasagna soup hot, accompanied by some crusty bread if desired.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth or a low-sodium store-bought version to control the saltiness of the dish.
- You can substitute the Vienna sausage with Italian sausage or ground beef for a more authentic lasagna taste.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, reduce the amount of water added.
- Feel free to add some vegetables like spinach or zucchini for extra nutrition and flavor.
- To prevent the pasta from becoming too soft and mushy, cook it separately and add it to the soup just before serving.
- Garnish with extra fresh parsley or basil leaves for an added burst of freshness.
Lasagna soup is an innovative twist on the classic Italian favorite; it’s perfect for cozy dinners and impressing guests alike.
