Real Lasagna Soup | Food Wishes

If you love lasagna, but don’t love the time it takes to do all that layering, then this amazing lasagna soup is for you! Unlike many lasagna soup recipes, this is way more than just pasta, meat, and cheese sitting in a bowl of tomato sauce. This is real lasagna in soup form. Enjoy!

This is the soup I never knew existed and now I need it in my life. Chef John never ceases to amaze!

I've been using a pasta shape called Campanelle for my lasagna soup, it's just so much easier than fussy cutting the regular strips. Definitely going to try the oven toasted version with Campanelle though, sounds decadent. These sorts of chunky pasta shapes like radiatore are my favorites.

For me, there is only one casserole that I enjoy even more than lasagna, and that is moussaka. You know where I'm going with this, I would love to see Chef John's take on moussaka soup. Recipes exist, but I think it can be made to be closer to the oven dish. One twist that I would apply would be to be to fry the potatoes crispy and use those as a garnish.

As good as this looks, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to give up making your Christmas Lasagna recipe. It’s just too good.

4:49 "which you're not". These asides always crack me up.

This looks marvelous. Since I learned about the "Three ingredient" tomato sauce about 3-4 years ago, I have not purchased sauce in a jar or can with one exception. I always keep one of those tiny cans of sauce for when I just want to make a small pizza. It takes about an hour to make, and it lasts me a couple to three meals. My go to canned tomatoes are Red Gold, whole tomatoes, or Cento Certified San Marzano when I am feeling rich. They never disappoint. And both are available at Walmart.

This was a winner! Fantastic soup! FYI we left the noodles in the oven for 17 mins - perfect!

Lasagna soup is my husband's favorite. Just made it last week. I'll definitely try the extra step next time. Thank you!

This looks so good!
I’m a “soup girl”!
And I’ll be adding this to my rotation!
Thank you, Chef John!

Reminds me of tortilla soup. Deep fry the tortilla pieces until crispy before dumping into the soup to just get all soggy. But it gives them a whole new character.

Mouth watering - it looks so delicious! I can’t wait to try this! Thank you! I never heard of lasagna soup before your teaser post. I rarely make lasagna because it is so labor-intensive & time consuming. I prefer creating 5 star soups, so this is a great alternative for me. I love veggies, so I may consider adding mushrooms & various squashes to it.😋

Chef John, I would love a recipe for Italian sausage. It's not a thing at all in the UK but is a standard in the US. An approximation of herbs and spices used so I can add some to some pork mince or sauages would be greatly appreciated!

Definitely will have to try this recipe though!

Just finished making the soup and it is fantastic! Well done Chef John!

[TheBigBenji]

Toasting those noodles is a GAME CHANGER! I can't wait to try this!!

[palaceofwisdom]

There's nothing like a glossy, deep crimson tomato soup. This looks fantastic!

[dianecooper]

Just printed up the recipe. Sounds like the perfect fall/ winter dinner meal.

[Redrum]

I'm absolutely making this. I may add chopped spinach and mushrooms.

[caprice]

Just made this and had a heaping serving. This is absolutely delicious. The crunchy pasta, the cheese and eating it like a soup with a spoon is brilliant. This dish is certainly being added to my other Chef John dishes that we make in a regular basis. I highly recommend. He’s absolutely correct, you have to use the real parmigiana reggiano and the good mozzarella not the prepackaged in a bag cheese. The expensive stuff. It make a huge difference.

One billion views. Congratulations Chef! Love your lasagne soup recipe. I added corn to mine to make it look pretty.
