Ingredients

Scale

1 pound beef-based Italian sausage (casings removed)
1/2 medium onion, finely diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
4 cups beef broth
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
10 uncooked lasagna noodles, snapped into bite-sized shards
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the sausage over medium-high heat until cooked through.
Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, water, and Italian seasoning; stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the pasta reaches desired tenderness.
Stir in the heavy cream to add richness.
Ladle the soup into bowls.
Top each serving with a dollop of ricotta, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and fresh parsley.

Notes

Ensure you use beef-based Italian sausage to keep the recipe halal. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes if you prefer a spicier kick. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; note that the pasta will continue to absorb broth, so add a splash of water when reheating.
