Ingredients

Scale

For the soup:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 8 oz lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

For garnish:

  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
  3. Stir in the dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir to combine.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles into the soup. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
  6. Stir in the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Continue to stir until the cheeses are melted and the soup becomes creamy.
  7. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
  8. Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Dairy-Free: To make this soup dairy-free, substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream or a plant-based heavy cream and use dairy-free cheeses.

  • Gluten-Free: Swap regular lasagna noodles for gluten-free noodles to make this soup suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.

  • Meat Substitutes: If you’re looking to make this soup vegetarian, swap the ground turkey for mushrooms, lentils, or tofu for a plant-based protein option.

  • Make Ahead: This soup can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for 3-4 days. For longer storage, freeze it for up to 3 months.

  • Garnish: Fresh parsley adds a lovely touch of color and flavor, but you can also use basil for a more fragrant finish. Feel free to add extra Parmesan or mozzarella on top for an indulgent touch.
