Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup

Lasagna is one of our favorite pasta dishes, but it can be a hassle to make, considering you have to cook the noodles and prepare all the different layers individually. Thankfully, it’s easy to get the classic lasagna flavors we love in an easy slow-cooker soup that’ll have you coming back for more! Filled with ground beef, tomatoes, onion, garlic and herbs, this soup is a breeze to make and it tastes phenomenal – make a big batch, ‘cause you’re going to want extra!

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 8 oz. butterfly noodles or lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 6 cups chicken broth

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 3/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream

  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

  2. Drain fat and transfer beef to slow cooker.
  3. Add in chicken broth, tomatoes and tomato paste, then add oregano, basil, red pepper flakes and bay leaf. Season generously with salt and pepper and stir everything together.

  6. Stir in pasta, then cook for another 20-30 minutes, or until al dente.
  7. In a separate bowl, mix ricotta, remaining parmesan cheese and lemon juice together. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
