Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground meat and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, and beef broth. Stir in the oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender, about 8-10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the noodles.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of ricotta cheese, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley.
