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.

I made this today it’s so easy to make and so delicious 😋
Outstanding! I doubled it for my family!
They are every bit!
Thanks Stella.
Listen! This is so yummy! Made it with fresh garlic bread
This is one of our favorite soups! My husband is NOT a fan of soup, at least he has told me several times. But this he has asked me for at least 6 times now! I love that it’s so easy! I love that it’s filling! Best part is the cheese scoop on top! I could eat that alone and be a happy girl! My picky eater 10 year old even loves this soup… and he won’t touch spaghetti 🤣
Hello Brooke! I happen to agree with you on the scoop! its a must add on! Happy its a winner with the whole family – even the picky ones! Thank you for leaving your kind feedback! Cheers!
This is an amazing soup! Thank you!!
This is an excellent soup, love the ricotta mixture! I plan on serving this Christmas Eve.
Hi Lisa, Fantastic so happy you enjoyed it! Its perfect for the holidays! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
This was so amazing that I made it 2 days in a row. I left out the sausage and used gluten free brown rice noodles. Love it!
HI Cynthia, I believe you! This is a family favorite! Thank you for trying it and the rating!!
Super delicious! My kids love stirring in the ricotta on top, a fun take on lasagna!
Yes this is a winner with my kids too! Thanks so much for trying it out!
Hi! It’s me again.
Will a 6qt casserole pan work for this?
Yes!
So delicious! Can’t wait to make this again.
Hi Annie, thank you for trying the soup out and I’m very happy it was enjoyed!!
Made it for Christmas instead of the traditional holiday food. It was delicious. I was surprised how well it turned out!
Hello! Happy you enjoyed this soup.. it’s one of my family’s favorites!
The soup came out great! It was quite easy to cook as well. I used ground beef instead of Italian sausage. So yum! Can’t wait to try some more recipes out!
Hi Melina, MMMM I have to try it with ground beef! Glad you enjoyed it!
Just made this tonight. I’m GF and Dairy Free. I was able to modify it & my family still gets their scoop of cheeses. Will definitely make this again.
Hi Kathy! Happy the whole family was able to enjoy! Thank you for rating and commenting!!

Hi Gina! This is definitely one of my family’s favorites! SO happy you liked the soup and thank you for taking the time to comment and rate it!!
How to make this vegetarian? Have you tried?
Hi Beck, I have not tried but you can use White Northern beans instead of the meat… or sub in the tomatoes for some roasted butternut squash or pumpkin…? Please comment back if you do try it that way .. happy holidays!
Hi! I’m doing two pots myself right now..one with pork sausage and one with Beyond “sausage” (should be in the meat case with the other Impossible or Beyond products. My local Walmart carries it).
Hi Melanie! I love the vegetarian alternative with this soup! Great idea! Hope you enjoyed and thank you for taking the time to comment and rate! Happy holidays!
Absolutely I Use Impossible Sausage All The Time, People Would Never Know Unless You Tell Them, I Use Meatless A Lot!!
