All the comforting flavors of lasagna—chicken, tomato sauce, melty cheese—in a cozy, one-pot soup the whole family will love.
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups chicken broth
1 can (15 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
2–3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1½ tsp Italian seasoning
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: red pepper flakes
1 cup shredded mozzarella
¼ cup grated Parmesan
½ cup ricotta or cream cheese (optional)
Sauté onion in olive oil until soft. Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
Stir in tomatoes, sauce, broth, seasoning. Bring to a simmer.
Add noodles and cook 10–12 mins until tender.
Stir in chicken and simmer 3–5 mins.
Add ricotta or cream cheese if using, then stir in mozzarella and Parmesan.
Serve hot with fresh herbs or more cheese on top.
Cook pasta separately for best leftovers. Add spinach for extra nutrients. Great for freezing—leave out noodles and cheese before freezing.
