Ingredients

Scale

Meats and Dairy

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

Vegetables and Herbs

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

Pantry Items

  • 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 the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a spoon as it cooks for even cooking.
  2. Sauté Onion and Garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot with the browned sausage. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the mixture is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add Broth and Water: Pour in the chicken broth and water. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer on medium heat.
  4. Cook Lasagna Noodles: Add the broken pieces of lasagna noodles into the pot. Cook uncovered until the noodles are tender, approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Incorporate Cream and Cheese: Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preference. Allow the soup to simmer for a few more minutes until the cheese melts into the broth.
  6. Add Spinach: Fold in the fresh spinach and stir gently until it wilts and becomes tender, which should take only a minute or two.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a bright, fresh finish.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, use spicy Italian sausage or add red pepper flakes while sautéing.
  • Gluten-free lasagna noodles can be substituted to make this dish gluten-free friendly.
  • Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; noodles may absorb broth over time—add extra broth when reheating if needed.
  • For a vegetarian alternative, replace sausage with mushrooms and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • To reduce fat, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream and turkey sausage instead of Italian sausage.
