Ingrédients

2 lasagna noodles

1 tablespoon olive oil

½ cup chopped onions

1 clove garlic (, minced)

¼ pound ground beef (4 ounces)

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (or chili flakes)

¼ teaspoon dried oregano

⅛ teaspoon salt

½ tablespoon tomato paste

½ cup tomato sauce

¾ cup chicken broth

¼ cup heavy cream

¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon ricotta cheese

Optional for garnish: fresh torn basil leaves

Instructions

Cook the pasta

Break the lasagna noodles into smaller pieces and cook them in a 2-quart saucepan according to package directions. Drain the cooked noodles and set aside.To prevent sticking, lightly toss the drained noodles in a bowl with a teaspoon of olive oil.

Make the soup

Using the same saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until the onions become translucent. Stir occasionally, and this should take about 2 minutes.

Add the minced garlic into the pot and sauté for an additional 30 seconds, making sure to stir frequently to prevent burning.

Add the ground beef to the pot. Use a spatula to break it into smaller pieces while seasoning with red pepper flakes, oregano, and salt. Cook until the beef is brown, approximately 3 minutes.

Once the beef is cooked, blend in the tomato paste and stir for about 30 seconds. Follow by adding the tomato sauce and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a light simmer.

Add the heavy cream to the pot and bring the mixture to a brief boil, stirring occasionally.

Return the cooked lasagna noodles to the pot. Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses until they melt into the soup.

To serve, pour the soup into a bowl and garnish with a dollop of ricotta cheese. Optionally, sprinkle some chopped basil on top for added flavor.
