Lasagne Soup. What could be better? Lasagne in a bowl in less than 30 minutes.
Nothing beats Lasagne in my house.
Nothing.
Except maybe this Lasagne Soup.
This seemed to make Skater sit up and notice. It tastes pretty much like Lasagne but it takes 1/4 of the time to cook. Naturally you can sneak any vegetables into this soup you want and that was what originally attracted me to the idea. I made it extra thick so that my fussy Lasagne eater would not have any reason for any kind of complaint, but you can add more “soup” if you like it thinner or you want it to stretch further. It’s a pretty novel and economical kind of dish, perfect for a whole group of Lasagne eating monsters. You can use any kind of pasta in this soup, but I’ve used fresh instant pasta sheets cut into squares because they cook so quickly. if you have a favourite dried pasta cook that separately then add at the end.
There is not much more to say really except you can make this with any kind of mince. Chicken, Turkey, Beef or Pork. Add chilli. Make it two days ahead then add the pasta when you reheat or just make a huge pot and eat it all week! It’s great for groups, great for keeping in the fridge to eat the next day. DO use good parmesan. DO make the cream sauce for the top.
Why not share this with someone ?
Lasagne Soup
Ingredients
Method
- Heat the cream in a small pot along with the grated parmesan cheese on medium heat. Stir till melted and it just starts to simmer. Then pour into a bowl. It will thicken a little as it cools. Set aside.
- Heat a saucepan on high then add 1/2 the olive oil and the beef mince and fry breaking up as it fries and starts to brown well. Season with a little salt.
- Then add a tablespoon or two more olive oil and add the onion, garlic, celery, capsicum, and oregano to the meat in the pot and and saute till the vegetables are starting to soften. Add the tomato sauce (passata) the stock and salt to taste.
- Simmer on low for 10-15 minutes
- Then add the fresh pasta and cook for another 5-10 minutes or till the pasta is just cooked ( it will keep cooking).
- Scoop into 4 big bowls and top with parmesan cream and extra cheese and chopped herbs.

Wow – this soup looks amazing! I only wish I could swallow at the moment. Thanks for linking up with the Ultimate Rabbit Hole xox
I never seem to have the time or patience to make a real lasagne but this seems such a tasty and time saving alternative. Just souper!
HI Tania, I love the sound of lasagna soup. Lasagna is one of the Boy’s favourite dishes I would love to see what he thinks of it in a soup. Would be much easier than making lasagna with gluten free pasta as it always falls apart – doesnt matter in soup!
I love this soup and those fancy dancy lasagne sheets look terrific. I wonder how to make it frilly if you’re making homemade lasagne?
Oh I am not sure maureen but you can buy long wavy Lazagne sheets in the supermarket you could just break them before cooking
What a clever idea! This looks amazing. I am definitely making this up not that the weather is starting to cool.
I’ve had cheeseburger soup and really liked it so I can really see how lasagna soup works too!
What an intriguing idea – I’m certainly interested in trying this one day. #FFF LinkUp
I love the sound of this. I’d have it nice and thick too. I’m not big on thing soups.
Yum! Much easier and less time consuming than lasagne.
G’day Tania! What a gorgeous photo and love your recipe as it so reminds me of childhood!
Love lasagna! It would be perfect on this chilli Adelaide day! Sharing!
Cheer! Joanne
I love lasagne but don’t often make it because it’s so time consuming and I seem to end up with mess from one end of the kitchen to the other. This is a wonderful option for the time-starved. Another good recipe for Skater xx
Yay!! I finally managed to get your page Tania, I’ve missed you!! I clicked on the facebook link and thus time it worked although at other times it hasn’t. I’ve only be been getting half a page and half a story, so this time I can see it all and how lucky for me that I didn’t miss out on such a great recipe. This will definitely be going onto my to cook list, my girls love lasagne and this is a great twist on a classic xo xo
What a brilliant idea! I often make tortilla soup but this is even more awesome! Love the rich flavours (perfect for a day like today when it’s raining and freezing in Melbourne!!!) Thanks for joining our Fabulous Foodie Fridays party. xx
Lovely recipe T! My boys would adore this! x
What a fun idea! I’ve never seen this before but it’s a really clever concept 🙂
It looks absolutely delicious. I have never made a lasagne soup…now I am really intrigued!
