Notes

  • *Use ground chicken or turkey for a healthier alternative or you can also use all ground beef
  • *Freezing instructions: Freeze lasagna soup without the cheese
  • Place soup in a freezer safe container and freeze for 2-3 months
  • Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat slowly on the stovetop for best flavor
  • *Vegetarian Lasagna Soup: Skip sausage and ground beef and add more chopped vegetables cooking with onion and garlic
  • I recommend zucchini mushrooms and/or yellow squash
  • *This is great for meal prep and will last in the fridge for up to 5 days
  • You can also freeze this soup once cooled
  • Add it to a freezer friendly container and freeze for up to 3 months
