1 pound Ground Beef
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Onion minced
4 Garlic Cloves minced
1 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning
2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
14 ounces Canned Tomatoes
4 1/2-5 cups Beef Broth
1-2 cups Mini Lasagna Noodles as desired (can use broken full-size lasagna noodles)
1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese

In a large stockpot or dutch oven over medium-heat, cook the ground beef until well-browned and no pink remains, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced onion and cook for 4 minutes until translucent, then add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute. (Add oil as needed to prevent the onions and garlic from burning.)
Stir in the tomato paste and Italian seasoning until beef is well-coated in both.
Add the tomatoes and broth and increase heat to medium-high.
Once the broth is simmering, add the lasagna noodles and reduce heat back to medium.
Cook until noodles reach your desired tenderness, about 8 minutes.
Stir in the heavy whipping cream and allow to cook for 3 more minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the mozzarella and ricotta cheese.
Garnish each bowl with a dollop of the cheese medley and optional basil or parsley.

Use low-sodium broth for a lighter flavor.
Make sure that you don't overcook the noodles – they should be al dente and not mushy.
It's important to brown the ground beef completely before you start to make this soup.
You could also garnish this soup with a sprinkle of fresh basil, parmesan cheese, or fresh parsley.
If you are using a super lean meat like turkey breast, add a little olive oil to your pot so that your meat doesn't stick while you are browning.
I like to drain the excess fat off the ground beef before I add all the remaining ingredients.
If you want to add more seasoning to this recipe you can use dried basil, thyme, rosemary, or oregano for more flavor.
If you don't have beef broth, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead.
Add the salt and pepper to suit your taste.
