This 5 Ingredient Lasagna Soup is easy, delicious, and a nice alternative to a time consuming traditional lasagna.
Why This 5-Ingredient Lasagna Soup is a Family Favorite
My family can be difficult to cook for because once they enjoy a dish they want to eat it every night. I like to try new recipes, but they can be picky! This 5 ingredient lasagna soup was honestly not loved by all, but that’s because my 2 and 7 year old love traditional lasagna.
This recipe is inspired by a Trader Joe’s Lasagna Soup recipe I stumbled upon online one Sunday while making our weekly dinner menu. Once I did a few more searches online I learned there are countless variations of Lasagna Soup. Each recipe has different difficulty levels depending on the ingredients.
How to Make Quick 5-Ingredient Lasagna Soup
My 5 ingredient recipe is easy because it calls for jar sauce and Italian chicken sausage. But if you’re feeling ambitious, you can make your own tomato sauce from scratch.
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 pound Italian chicken sausage
- 1 large jar tomato sauce (your favorite – we use Rao’s)
- 6-8 dried lasagna noodles (broken into pieces)
- 1 box broth (beef or vegetable)
- olive oil
- Italian seasoning blend
- salt and pepper
- optional: ricotta or shredded mozzarella
Note: This is my favorite dutch oven to make all of my soups in (as well as chili). Enjoy!
