Ingredients

Scale

Soup Base

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into pieces

Alfredo Sauce

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Finishing Touches

  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Brown the sausage: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground Italian sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon until it is fully browned and cooked through.
  2. Sauté aromatics: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot with the sausage. Cook until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add liquids and simmer: Pour in the chicken broth and water, stirring well. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer on medium heat.
  4. Cook the noodles: Add the broken lasagna noodles to the simmering broth. Cook until the noodles are tender but not mushy, approximately 10 minutes.
  5. Create Alfredo base: Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper to your preference, mixing thoroughly to combine all flavors.
  6. Add the spinach: Toss in the fresh spinach and stir gently until it is wilted and incorporated into the soup.
  7. Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Add a generous dollop of ricotta cheese on top of each serving and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute Italian sausage with plant-based sausage or omit entirely.
  • If you want a lighter soup, reduce the heavy cream to ½ cup and use low-fat ricotta.
  • Can be prepared ahead and reheated; noodles may absorb broth, so add a little extra broth when reheating.
  • Fresh lasagna noodles can be used and will cook faster than dried.
  • Add crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
