How to Make Crockpot Lasagna Soup
  1. Brown the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the lean ground beef along with the chopped onion and minced garlic until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat before transferring it to your trusty crockpot.
  2. Add Tomatoes and Broth: Pour in the 28 oz of canned diced tomatoes with herbs and the 4 cups of low-sodium beef broth into the crockpot. Give it a good stir to combine everything nicely.
  3. Season the Base: Sprinkle in Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste, harmonizing the dish with delightful flavors.
  4. Incorporate Noodles: Break the lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces and gently add them to the pot.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Now, cook your soup on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, until the noodles are tender and everything melds beautifully together.
  6. Finish with Creaminess: Right before serving, stir in the ricotta cheese until it’s creamy and well-combined. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top for that irresistible melty finish!

Notes

When making Crockpot Lasagna Soup, ensure to brown the ground beef thoroughly for maximum flavor. If you want to enhance richness, consider using a combination of beef and Italian sausage. For a creamier consistency, mix the ricotta cheese gradually and stir it well into the soup just before serving. Cooking on low for the full 6 hours allows the flavors to develop, but if you're short on time, the high setting works well in just 3 hours. Make sure to break the lasagna noodles into even pieces for uniform cooking and to avoid clumping.
