Preparing Alfredo Lasagna Soup
Making Alfredo Lasagna Soup is straightforward, combining savory sautéed ingredients with rich creamy stock and tender lasagna noodles. Start by browning ground meat for that robust foundation, then add in your aromatics and watch everything come together in a bubbling pot. You’ll stir in the lasagna pieces, allowing them to soak in all those delectable flavors. Finally, finish it off with ooey-gooey cheese for that perfect melty touch.
What You’ll Need
Gather the following ingredients to create this comforting bowl of joy:
- 1 small sliced onion
- 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
- 1 lb. of ground meat (preferably chicken or Italian sausage)
- 4 quarts of chicken stock
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups of tomato preserves
- 8 lasagna noodles, split into smaller pieces
- 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning blend
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup chopped Parmesan cheese
- 125 milliliters of grated mozzarella
- Freshly minced basil or parsley for garnish
- Red pepper flakes (optional)
Feel free to swap the ground meat for a plant-based alternative if you’re looking for a vegetarian option. The tomato preserves bring a unique sweetness, but you can substitute them with diced tomatoes for a more traditional flavor profile.
