Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ground Italian sausage or lean ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 68 gluten-free lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or full-fat coconut milk (for dairy-free)
  • For Topping:
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free ricotta cheese (or dairy-free ricotta alternative)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add ground sausage/beef and onion. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth, Italian seasoning, dried basil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and black pepper.
  4. Bring the soup to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let it cook for at least 20-30 minutes for flavors to meld.
  5. Add the broken gluten-free lasagna noodles to the simmering soup. Cook according to package directions, typically 8-12 minutes, until al dente. Ensure noodles do not overcook and become mushy.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut milk) and heat through for 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
  7. While the noodles cook, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
  8. Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of the ricotta-Parmesan mixture and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure you use gluten-free lasagna noodles and check that any other packaged ingredients (like broth, sausage, or cheese alternatives) are also certified gluten-free if you have celiac disease or a severe gluten sensitivity.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the sausage/beef and use vegetable broth. You can add extra vegetables like chopped zucchini or spinach.
  • The red pepper flakes add a touch of heat; adjust the amount to your preference or omit entirely.
