What do you do when it’s a crazy busy week? Deadlines, schedules, school, sports – they all seem to come to head at the same time. It’s easy to skip out on making dinner, because let’s be honest – who wants to add one more to-do to their list when it’s so busy?

On weeks like this, I know to grab for my copy of the I Heart Naptime Cookbook. This cookbook contains over 100 recipes that you can make in under 1 hour. Yes, please!!

This book is filled with all kinds of great recipes. Of course, I will be using the dinner recipes often, but there are also breakfasts, side dishes, party recipes, soups, salads, desserts and so much more. And as a bonus, she even includes some fun things like templates for spice jar labels, cupcake tags, and how make sundae kits. This really is such a fun book!

One of my daughter’s favorite foods is soup. So of course I went to the soup recipes! This Lasagna Soup Recipe was everything that I was hoping it would be. You really do get all of the flavors of lasagna in a bowl.

Tips for This Lasagna Soup

• This soup is meant to be eaten once it is made. It’s not a good one to sit around for a few hours, or even as much for leftovers, because the noodles cook in the soup. If you want to let it simmer for awhile, or if you are a family that tends to have lots of leftovers, just know that the noodles will soak up the liquid. You can always add more broth, or you can cook the noodles separately and then add them to each individual serving.
• If the sausage is too spicy for little ones, you can use ground beef. Or do a combination of sausage and ground beef to make everyone happy!
• If you plan on freezing the soup, I would leave out the noodles and the cheese. You can add the noodles in as it is reheating, or you can cook the noodles separately.
• The recipe says that the ricotta on top is optional, but I would not recommend skipping it. It was the perfect ending touch for this recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 cup chopped yellow onion
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
• 4 cups chicken stock
• 1 (15-ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, with juice
• 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste*
• 1 teaspoon ground oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon ground thyme
• 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped, plus more for garnish

Instructions

1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it browns, for about 10 minutes. Pour off any extra grease from the pan and slowly stir in the chicken stock.
2. Add the tomatoes with their juice, the tomato paste, oregano, thyme, and basil. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Add the lasagna noodles and cook until the noodles are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with Parmesan, fresh basil, and ricotta, if desired.

Recipe Notes:

I didn’t have enough tomato paste on hand, so I only used about 2 tablespoons. It worked!

This is a thick soup, and will get thicker as it sits and the pasta soaks up more of the liquid. If you want to thin it out, you can add more chicken stock.
