Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté onion for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add carrots and bell pepper. Cook for 4–5 minutes. If using ground poultry, add and cook until browned.
Season with oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir in broth and bring to a boil.
Add lasagna noodle pieces and simmer for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low. Stir in milk, cream, and greens (if using). Simmer for 2–3 minutes.
Add ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Stir until cheese melts and soup is smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot, garnished with parsley and extra Parmesan if desired.

Notes

Omit ground meat for a vegetarian version.
Swap lasagna noodles with other short pasta shapes if preferred.
Use mascarpone or cream cheese for added richness.
Not freezer-friendly due to pasta texture—best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated.
Reheat with a splash of broth or cream to loosen consistency.
