Lasagna Soup

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 lb Italian sausage
• 1/2 lb ground beef
• Salt and pepper
• 1/2 tbsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 cups marinara sauce
• 3-4 cups chicken broth
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 box lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella (freshly shredded melts better)
• 1/4 cup basil, chopped

Directions

• Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and saute until it starts to lose color, about 7 minutes.
• Add the minced garlic and cook about a minute, then add the sausage and ground beef along with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until browned.
• Stir in the tomato paste.
• Add the marinara sauce, then the chicken broth. Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a boil.
• Add the broken lasagna noodles. Lower the heat and simmer until the pasta is fully cooked; if the liquid is absorbed and the pasta sticks, add more broth.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the Parmesan and mozzarella until melted. Stir in the chopped basil and serve.
