I recently made this Blue and Buffalo Lasagna Soup Recipe and everyone loved it. So obviously I had to make a classic version with ricotta!
Serves: 12
Ingredients
FOR THE SOUP:
  • 1 lb. Italian Sausage
  • 1 Large Yellow Onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 oz. Baby Bella Mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 2 tsp. Dried Oregano
  • 1 tsp. Dried Thyme
  • ½ tsp. Himalayan Salt
  • ¼ tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
  • 28 oz. Can of Crushed Tomatoes
  • 15 oz. Can of Tomato Sauce
  • 2 cups Chicken Bone Broth
  • 16 oz. Lasagna Noodles, broken into pieces
  • Fresh Basil, for serving
FOR THE RICOTTA DOLLOP:
  • 8 oz. Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
  • ¼ cup Freshly Shredded Colby Jack
  • ¼ cup Grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp. Minced Basil, optional
Instructions
  1. Add sausage to a large skillet and sauté until browned, making sure to break apart into small chunks.
  2. Add onion and continue to cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Once cooked through, remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. Add the mushrooms to the same skillet, using the sausage fat to saute. When caramelized, add the garlic and continue to cook until fragrant. About 1 minute.
  4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken stock, and dried herbs. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer for 10 - 15 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, break apart the lasagna noodles into bite sized pieces. Bring a large pot to a rolling boil, add a hefty dose of salt, and cook accordingly to packaged directions for al dente. Do not overcook, as they will finish cooking in the soup.
  6. While the noodles cook, mix together the ricotta, Colby Jack cheese, and grated parmesan. Set aside in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
  7. Add the al dente noodles to the soup pot and turn off the heat. Serve immediately with the ricotta mixture, fresh basil, additional grated parmesan, and red pepper flakes. Dollop the ricotta mixture in the middle and enjoy!
