Step 1

Combine everything together in a small bowl and set aside. We won’t need it again until the soup is ready to serve!

Step 2

break the lasagna sheets into small pieces

Step 3

chop onions if using

Step 4

Start by cooking down garlic (and onions if using) in some olive oil and butter in a pot over medium heat. Then add the ground beef. I like to use 90/10 because it’s not too lean and not too fatty, just right.

Step 5

For the ground beef seasoning, we’ll use Italian seasoning, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium-high heat and use a wooden spoon to break up the ground beef. Once it browns, we’ll add marinara sauce, heavy cream, and beef broth.

Step 6

My favorite marinara sauce to use is Rao’s Homemade! Mix all together and bring to a slow and rolling boil. Add the lasagna sheets and cook until soft, about 13 to 15 minutes.

Step 7

After that, lower the heat and add parsley, basil, and mozzarella cheese. Mix together one last time.

Step 8

Serve in a bowl with dollops of the seasoned ricotta on top!
