Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup yellow onion, diced
- 1/4 cup truffle oil
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp parsley flakes
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 28 oz fire-roasted crushed tomatoes
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 7 lasagna noodles
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water
- 6 oz truffle thrills
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
Instructions
- Add the diced onions and truffle oil to a large pot or Dutch oven (paid link) on medium heat. Cook the onions until they have softened and become translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, parsley flakes, garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt to the pot, stirring to combine.
- Next, add the chicken stock, crushed tomatoes, and sugar. Stir until combined. Break the lasagna noodles into 2 to 3-inch pieces, then add to the pot. Stir. Cover the pot and cook for 10-15 minutes on medium high heat.
- When the soup is done cooking, whisk (paid link) together the water and cornstarch in a small bowl, then add it to the pot.
- Add the truffle thrills, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese. Cover the pot to allow the cheese to melt.
- Once the cheese has melted, which should only take a few minutes, you can serve it immediately. Top your lasagna off with more cheese, a dollop of fresh ricotta, and/or fresh parsley.
Notes
Adding the cornstarch mix will slightly change the texture, from a broth to a creamy consistency. The cornstarch makes the soup much heartier. Omit this step for a thinner soup base.
You can substitute ground turkey or ground chicken for the ground beef in this recipe.
