LASAGNA SOUP - ONE POT

What if you could have all the cozy, comforting flavors of lasagna without the hours of layering, baking and waiting? This One Pot Lasagna Soup is the answer! It is hearty, rich and packed with protein. And all in under 30 minutes! Plus, it's made in just one pot, which means less cleanup and more time to enjoy dinner around the table. 

This version is naturally gluten free and dairy free but still delivers everything you love about lasagna: savory Italian sausage, tender noodles, flavorful marinara and a creamy swirl at the end.

Why we love this One Pot Lasagna Soup:

• One Pot - easy clean up (always a win!)
• Comfort food that's lighted up but still hearty.
• Protein - packed with balance of carbs, fat and veggies
• Versatile - add extra vegetables or cheese to make it your own
• Family Friendly - every one will enjoy this meal
• Makes great leftovers   


Ingredients:
  • Applegate Italian Sausage - sausage that adds bold Italian flavor and protein without unwanted fillers.
  • Ground Turkey - Lean protein that keeps the soup hearty but lighter than beef.
  • Onion - Adds natural sweetness and depth to the base.
  • Garlic - Boosts flavor and supports immune health.
  • Tomato Paste - Concentrated tomato flavor that makes the broth rich and savory.
  • Rao's Marinara Sauce - A clean, high quality sauce with no added sugar
  • Seasonings - Red pepper flakes, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, black pepper and kosher salt built the layers of classic Italian flavor
  • Chicken Stock - Provides a flavorful base to the soup.
  • Jovial Pasta - Gluten free pasta, made with two simple ingredients and cooks up perfectly.
  • Spinach - Adds freshness, nutrients and color right at the end.
  • Lite Coconut Milk - Coconut milk is a dairy free way to add creaminess without heavy cream.
Pro Tips:
  • Chop your sausage small so it blends evenly into each bite.
  • Toast your tomato paste for a couple of minutes before adding liquids, this deepens the flavor.
  • If making ahead, cook the pasta separately and add it when reheating to avoid soggy noodles.

Notes, Swaps and Oven Directions:
  • Vegetables - Add chopped zucchini or yellow squash for extra fiber and color 
  • Cheese - If you tolerate dairy, stir in ricotta or top with mozzarella for a more traditional lasagna experience.
  • Pasta - Any gluten free pasta shape works. For this soup I love the look at texture of Jovials Mafalda. 
  • Protein - Swap the turkey for ground chicken or beef.
  • Short on time? Make this flavorful One Pot Lasagna Soup in the Instant Pot. Instructions follow the recipe.
Make it a Meal:

  • Pair this soup with a warm gluten free roll or a slice of toast to soak up all that delicious broth.
  • Add a simple side salad for a full meal.
  • Going for fall vibes? Try this soup with my soft and moist Sweet Potato Biscuits.
