    How to Serve Easy Lasagna Soup

    Lasagna Soup is best topped with a dollop of ricotta cheese and shredded, fresh basil. I recommend serving it with garlic bread to dip into the soup.

    How to Store, Freeze, and Reheat One Pot Lasagna Soup

    One Pot Lasagna Soup should be cooled completely and placed in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. To freeze, make the soup without the noodles. Allow it to cool completely and then store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6 months.

    To reheat from the refrigerator, you can use the microwave or place it in a saucepan on the stove top. If you’re reheating the soup from frozen, you’ll want to allow it to thaw first. Once thawed, place it in a saucepan on the stove top. Bring to a boil and then add the pasta. Boil until the pasta has cooked through and serve.

    Can you freeze lasagna soup? You can, but it needs to be done prior to adding the pasta.

    Cheesy Sausage Lasagna Soup Tips

    • To make this vegetarian, you can omit the Italian sausage and use vegetable broth in place of the chicken broth.
    • If you'd like to make it in advance, omit the noodles and add them in at the end.
    What pasta is best for lasagna soup?

    I love using Mafalda pasta because it looks like tiny lasagna noodles. I buy Central Market brand in my stores, but they have some on Amazon as well. You can use broken up lasagna noodles, rotini, or even bowtie.

    Should I boil the lasagna first?

    No, it is not necessary to boil the lasagna first. It will boil directly in the soup.

    Can I use ground beef instead of Italian sausage?

    Absolutely. I would recommend seasoning your beef with some Italian seasoning while browning if you do.

    Can I use dried herbs instead of fresh? (garlic, oregano, etc.)

    Absolutely! Use what you have on hand and adjust for flavor.

    Lasagna Soup Alterations for Picky Eaters

    • Top it with cheese! What's their favorite cheese? Put a nice topping of mozzarella on top.
    • If they enjoy lasagna, but aren't sure about the soup, serve it up with minimal broth and maximum filling, then melt some cheese on top.

    Alterations to lower calories or WW points

    • this soup is actually really calorie and WW point friendly when slight alterations are made
    • swap the traditional Italian sausage for turkey Italian sausage - tastes the same, but way less calories and points than traditional
    • Use fat free or reduced fat mozzarella
    • Top it with fresh basil and either fat free or low fat ricotta, so indulgent with minimal calories and points

      I’m confused on the serving size vs yield. 12 servings, yet 1.25 cups for this recipe creates only 6 servings. I’d love to know what I’m missing 🙂

        Hi Haley, I'm happy to help if I can! The recipe as written makes 12 - 1.25 cup servings. When completed, the soup nearly fills my 6 quart Dutch oven pot. Were all ingredients used?

    A completely underrated recipe on the blog is this Smoked Turkey Pepper Jack Quesadilla. It’s not a typical quesadilla and it has a surprising ingredient you might not expect 😁

    This pineapple pico de gallo is a staple for me in the summer because it’s a perfect combo of sweet and spicy. It goes really great with chicken and fish, but my favorite is eating it with lime tortilla chips 😍😍😍

    This Greek Pasta Salad takes traditional pasta salad we're all familiar with and swaps the regular pasta for tortellini and the dressing for a Greek-style favorite. It's easy to make, makes the perfect side dish (hello Greek Turkey Burgers!), and you can make it 3-4 days in advance. A total win/win.
