  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 bay leaf

  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes undrained
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 0.5 cup half-and-half
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Toppings

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Heat a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add ground beef and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes.

Building Flavor

  • Stir in chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, and bay leaf; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Simmering

  • Pour in beef broth, diced tomatoes with juices, and tomato paste; bring to a boil.
  • Stir in broken lasagna noodles, reduce heat, and simmer until noodles are tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove bay leaf and stir in half-and-half and Parmesan until smooth.

Serving

  • Ladle soup into bowls and top with shredded mozzarella and fresh basil.

Notes

Feel free to swap ground beef for turkey to reduce fat.
For a spicier version, add extra red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
Leftovers thicken as they chill; thin with a splash of broth when reheating.
