Ingredients

Scale

Protein & Dairy

  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese

Vegetables & Aromatics

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Pantry & Dry Goods

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Brown the Sausage: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add ground Italian sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned and no longer pink.
  2. Sauté Onion and Garlic: Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until onions become translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add Liquids and Simmer: Pour in chicken broth and water, then bring mixture to a gentle simmer on medium-high heat.
  4. Cook Lasagna Noodles: Add broken lasagna noodles to the simmering pot. Cook until noodles are tender, approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Incorporate Cream and Cheese: Stir in heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, allowing the soup to heat through and the cheese to melt.
  6. Add Spinach: Fold in fresh spinach and cook just until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Ladle soup into bowls. Top each serving with a generous dollop of ricotta cheese and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a bright finish.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, omit the Italian sausage and substitute vegetable broth.
  • Use gluten-free lasagna noodles to make this soup gluten-free.
  • Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes can provide a subtle spicy kick.
  • Leftover soup stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days but noodles may absorb liquid, so consider cooking them separately if planning to reheat.
