Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

Instructions

1. Cook the Sausage and Aromatics:

   • In a large pot, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned, breaking it into pieces. Drain excess fat if needed.
   • Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for an additional minute.

2. Add Broth and Tomatoes:

   • Pour in the chicken broth, diced tomatoes, marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.

3. Cook the Noodles:

   • Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and cook until they’re al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

4. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce:

   • In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk until smooth and golden, about 1 minute.
   • Slowly add the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, around 5 minutes.
   • Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

5. Combine Everything:

   • Pour the Alfredo sauce into the soup pot and stir until well combined. Let the soup simmer for a few minutes to allow flavors to blend.

6. Serve and Garnish:

   • Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella or Parmesan cheese.

Tips

• For extra creaminess, add a splash of milk or heavy cream just before serving.
• If the soup thickens too much, add a bit more broth or water.
