Switching up the protein
Ground “meat” is an easy choice for this (I love Beyond ground “meat”), but you can absolutely use white beans instead or add 2-3 cups more of veggies if you want to make this lasagna soup vegetarian. Use ground beef or chicken instead of ground turkey if you like it more or have it one hand.
Making this dairy-free
Instead of heavy cream, use your favorite non-dairy milk as well as vegan shredded cheese!
Making this gluten-free
Aim for gluten-free lasagna noodles if you can find them! In a pinch, any “big” pasta that’s gluten-free can work. Shells, big rigatoni, whatever you can find.
Pro-tip:An easy way to break the lasagna noodles is to put them in a gallon bag. This keeps all the little pieces from flying all over the place!
Add-ons
If you want an even cheesier experience, you can serve thissoupwith a dollop of ricotta cheese on top.
Crusty bread is another great addition.
Top this soup off with fresh basil and/or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese!
Feel like making croutons?
Take some fluffy bread (I used an Italian roll), chop it into cubes, drizzle with olive oil and bake in the oven at 350 F until they get crispy or start to dry out – about 20 minutes.
How to store & reheat this lasagna soup
This soup is good in the fridge for up to 5 days. It reheats best in the microwave or on the stove. Keep croutons separate at room temp if you make them. You can freeze this soup for up to 6 months in an airtight container, and even longer if you use something likeSouper Cubesto freeze it in to avoid freezer burn. If you freeze it, you can thaw it in the fridge overnight, in the microwave or in a pot on the stove. Happy prepping!
