Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 8–10 lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half (optional, for creaminess)
  • For Ricotta Topping:
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, dried basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a boil.
  5. Add broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until noodles are al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. While noodles cook, prepare the ricotta topping: In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, fresh parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  7. Once noodles are cooked, stir in heavy cream or half-and-half (if using) into the soup. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Ladle soup into bowls. Dollop a spoonful of the ricotta topping onto each serving. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, omit the cheese topping or use a vegan ricotta and cheese substitute.
  • Adjust red pepper flakes to your spice preference.
  • Ensure noodles are stirred occasionally to prevent them from sticking together or to the bottom of the pot.
