Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese, for topping
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, for topping
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the beef broth, crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles and water to the pot. Stir well to prevent sticking.
  6. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot partially, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender.
  7. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined and the soup is creamy. Heat through for 2 minutes, but do not boil after adding the cream.
  8. Ladle the hearty Italian soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality crushed tomatoes.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, cook the noodles uncovered for the last few minutes.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or Italian sausage for the ground beef.
