Equipment

  • 1 Large Dutch Oven

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 lb ground pork or sausage
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 1 parmesan rind
  • ½ lb lasagna, broken into pieces
  • 1 handful fresh basil
  • ½ cup ricotta
  • ½ cup parmesan
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Bring a dutch oven to medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and sausage and sear without touching for 3 minutes. Use a wooden spoon to break apart the meat and brown it throughout. Once browned, remove the meat and set it aside. Remove any excess liquid from the pot.
  • Lower the heat to medium and add olive oil. Add the onion to the pot and saute until soft, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and saute for another 2 minutes.
  • Pour in the marinara sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the meat back and combine well.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and add the parmesan rind. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the lasagna and simmer for 15 more minutes.
  • Add fresh basil to the soup and remove from the heat. Serve the soup with ricotta, parmesan, and fresh parsley.

Notes

  1. Use homemade marinara sauce. It is less processed and less salty, which will give you more control over the flavor of the soup.
  2. Sear the meat without touching it at first to allow a crust to form. This will add flavor to the soup by creating a fond on the bottom of the pot. This will later be deglazed by the sweating onions.
  3. Adding a parmesan rind is optional, but it adds a little extra flavor to the soup. It's always good to save your parmesan rinds for soup.
