One Pot Lasagna Soup

ground beef

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground pork

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground pork is often less expensive.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat, while cheddar is often cheaper.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated Romano cheese

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free, and Romano is a cost-effective substitute.

Break lasagna noodles into 1 to 2 inch pieces.

Brown ground beef and diced onion in a pot.

If there's excess grease, drain it off; otherwise, leave it.

Add fire roasted tomatoes, spaghetti sauce, Italian seasoning, and broth to the pot.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 10 minutes.

Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and stir.

Taste for seasoning and adjust with more Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, or pepper as desired.

Stir occasionally while noodles cook until tender.

Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 cup mozzarella cheese, stirring until melted.

Plate the soup and add a dollop of cottage cheese or ricotta, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and basil.
