Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup broken lasagna noodles
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles and cook according to package directions, or until al dente.
  6. Stir in the ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese until well combined.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded mozzarella cheese before serving.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, omit the ground beef and add extra vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini.
  • You can use other pasta shapes like penne or rotini if you don’t have lasagna noodles.
  • A dollop of ricotta cheese on top of each serving adds an extra creamy touch.
