Ingredients

Scale

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound lean ground beef
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 cups beef broth (halal certified)
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Add the onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until softened about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, tomato paste, dried oregano, basil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, cooking for another minute.
Pour in the beef broth and crushed tomatoes, stirring to combine all ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the broken lasagna noodles.
Cook for 10-12 minutes or until noodles are al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese until melted.
Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded mozzarella and parmesan.
Garnish with fresh basil before serving.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of broth if the noodles have absorbed too much liquid. You can substitute lean ground turkey for beef if preferred.
