One Pot Lasagna Soup
Same great taste with a fraction of the work.
When you’re in the mood for some good ole fashion Italian comfort food but not the 20 step laborious process of making lasagna. This is quick, easy to put together and so yummy!! I’ve personally been making this one for years and kids ask for it by name.
You musn’t skip the ricotta cheese topping, it really sends this soup over the top and makes it spoon lickin’ good. I add sugar to most of my tomato sauce recipes to stomp out the bitterness. You can omit it if you like. Or just taste your sauce as your cooking and adjust accordingly.

Hi,
This soup sounds really delicious. One question, does the soup really contain 1598mg of sodium?
This soup was absolutely delicious. All the family agree. Thank you Stella
Superb. The soup also freezes well. Just add the ricotta mix at the end.
My husband and I really enjoyed this soup. Has a nice flavor and hit the spot. The ricotta cheese mixture was prefect! Will definitely make again!
Great taste and easy to make. I don’t eat pork so switched de sausages for minced chicken.
Super yummy….thanks so much for sharing!!
Hi I Made Your One Pot Lasagna Soup And It Was Amazing!! I Switched Out The Italian Sausage For Impossible Sausage And The Chicken Broth For Vegetable Broth To Make It Vegetarian, Because I Can’t Digest Any Meats, But I Am Not A Vegan! My Husband And I Loved This Recipe!!
I Regularly Switch Out The Meats In Recipes For Either Morningstar Farms Or Gardein Or Impossible Or Beyond Meatless Choices!! I Have Never Had A Problem With Taste Because These Replacement Choices All Taste Great Alone Too!! Thanks Again Stella For Another Great Recipe!!!
Can I use cottage cheese in place of the ricotta cheese?
Hi Melissa, that’s a great substitute here! I have tried it and its awesome! Enjoy!

Hi Mary, glad you liked the soup!
Will half and half work?
