I often try a couple of new recipes off of Pinterest each week. Sometimes I use them for inspiration and this amazing lasagna soup is one of those times. This recipe was inspired by the lasagna soup found on A Farm Girl’s Dabbles blog. Her recipe looked fabulous, but I took it a few steps further. I changed it up a bit, and the results were FREAKING AMAZING! Remember my homemade lasagna recipe? Well, the soup I made today is the beautiful sister (not ugly step-sister) of that lasagna. Here’s what I did:

Amazing Lasagna Soup

Lasagna Soup Ingredients

2 tsp. olive oil

1 tsp. minced garlic

2 tsp. dried oregano

2 huge tomatoes, diced (got them from my garden…if yours aren’t huge, adjust number accordingly)

1 large onion, chopped up small

Saute all of the above (I do it in the same pot I am making the soup in), then add:
1 1/2 lb browned ground beef, drained

20 slices of pepperoni, cut in quarters

1 small can of tomato sauce

2 bay leaves (don’t eat those…just seasoning)

7 cups chicken broth

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

handful shredded mozzarella cheese (about a cup)

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

2 tsp. dried basil

How to Make Lasagna Soup

Before you start making the soup, brown and then drain your ground beef.

Once your ground beef is browned and drained well, return it to the pot and add the remaining ingredients, except for the pasta. If you put the pasta in too soon it will be too mushy (that’s a word, right?).

Next, you should simmer on medium-low for a couple of hours.

Season to taste with a little garlic salt.

While the soup is simmering, grate some fresh parmesan cheese, which you will use as a garnish.

*About 10-15 minutes before we were ready to eat I added broken up lasagna noodles (probably about 4 or 5 lasagna noodles worth). Remove the bay leaves and garnish with a touch of shredded mozzarella cheese.

My husband is a picky eater, but he loves lasagna. We definitely need to give this recipe a try! It's been really cold here lately, so I'm craving soups.

You should give it a try then, Brittany! You won't be sorry!

This looks delicious! And easier than real lasagna. This would probably be really good in the crock pot after you brown the meat. I'll have to give it a try! Thanks for sharing :) Stephanie @ managingahome.com

I have thought about the crock pot...you will have to let me know if that works well. I love my crock pot, but since the noodles don't get put in til the last little bit or they will get to soggy, I haven't been brave enough to try it.
