Love Lasagna, but Short on Time? Make Lasagna Soup Instead!
Are you in the mood for lasagna, but it takes too long to make it? Prepping and baking lasagna can be so time-consuming. All the chopping, layering, and sauce-making takes at least 20 minutes. Then, you need 40 or 50 minutes to bake it in the oven. To spend less time in the kitchen, make lasagna soup instead. You need the same ingredients as for regular lasagna. But the cooking time is shorter. It takes no more than 30 minutes. Both preparation and baking!
Lasagna Soup Recipe Easy to Prep with Simple Ingredients (Hacks and Tips Revealed!)
This lasagna soup recipe, easy and quick, is ready in no time. It’s simple to make with a few key ingredients.
Ingredients:
- Oil
- Onions
- Sun-dried tomatoes
- Black beans (from a can, without liquid)
- Passata
- Water
- Lasagna sheets
- Cream cheese
- Grated mozzarella cheese (for serving)
Spices:
- Ground coriander, oregano, basil, garlic powder, black pepper, nutmeg, salt, and sugar
We use sun-dried tomatoes in this recipe to make the lasagna rich, savory, and slightly sweet. We recommend not skipping them, as they add much tomato flavor to lasagna soup. A typical lasagna usually takes 40-50 minutes to bake in the oven. Because of the long baking process, all ingredients have enough time to infuse. And develop richness. We shortened the cooking process to 25 minutes. But we add sun-dried tomatoes to get the rich tomato taste of lasagna. So you spend less time cooking, but the taste is still so rich!
To add more protein, we use canned black beans. You can substitute beans with vegetarian minced meat, spinach, or mushrooms.
The first hack is to prep all ingredients before starting to cook lasagna soup in a pan. The cooking process is so quick that you won’t have time to do anything in between. Chop onion and sun-dried tomatoes. Drain and rinse canned black beans. Measure spices, passata, water, and cream cheese.
All prepared? Let’s start cooking! Fry onions, then add sun-dried tomatoes. Add canned black beans. If you don’t like black beans, skip them. Add passata. Let it simmer. Pour in water. Break lasagna sheets into big pieces. The best is to break them in half or four pieces. Don’t break into very small pieces because the soup gets soggy. Add lasagna sheets and cook until half-cooked. In our case, it took around 5 minutes. For creaminess, add cream cheese. Mix and cook until the lasagna is al dente. Ladle soup into a bowl. Sprinkle it with mozzarella cheese when serving. We are adding mozzarella cheese directly into a bowl. Because the soup is hot, the cheese will melt inside. So creamy! So gooey!
Cheesy Lasagna Soup: Rich and Creamy
Can you imagine lasagna without cheese? Impossible! We are adding two types of cheeses to this recipe. Cream cheese and grated mozzarella cheese. Cream cheese makes the soup very creamy and enhances the savory tomato taste. We recommend using it because it dissolves perfectly during cooking. And doesn’t create lumps. Once lasagna soup is ready, ladle it into a bowl and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Or any other grated cheese that melts. Gooey, stretchy melted cheese. What can be better? This lasagna soup recipe easy to make, cheesy, flavorful, is a true family favorite!
What Noodles Are Best for Lasagna Soup?
The best is to use classic lasagna sheets for this lasagna soup. Break them into half or four parts. But not into smaller pieces. As an alternative, you can use broad and flat pasta types. But don’t go for small pasta. Pappardelle works perfectly. Or lasagnette.
