Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
½ onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 (14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
4 cups beef broth (1 carton)
12 oz lasagna noodles
½ cup ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
Instructions:
Brown the Beef In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess grease to keep the soup from becoming too oily.
Prep the Base Transfer the cooked beef to a 6-quart slow cooker. Add diced onion, red bell pepper, diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and beef broth. These flavors will blend into a rich, savory broth!
Slow Cook for Maximum Flavor Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours. This slow simmer enhances the taste and texture.
Add the Noodles Break the lasagna noodles into smaller pieces and stir them into the soup. Cook on HIGH for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
Serve & Enjoy Ladle the hot, cheesy lasagna soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of ricotta and a generous sprinkle of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Pro Tip: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra heat or serve with crusty garlic bread for the ultimate Italian comfort meal!
