Equipment
- Large Pot
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey or ground chicken for a lighter option
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 32 oz chicken broth or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version
- 8 oz heavy cream
- 1 8 oz cream cheese, softened can use low-fat cream cheese
- 2 cups lasagna noodles, broken into pieces use gluten-free noodles if needed
- 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese plus more for topping
- 4 oz grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning or a mix of dried basil and oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish optional
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground turkey until it’s no longer pink, about 5 to 7 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it’s nicely browned and smells delicious. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and fragrant. This will add a lovely aroma to your kitchen.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. You’ll see little bubbles forming on the surface.
- Stir in the heavy cream and softened cream cheese until smooth. This will create a rich, creamy base for your soup. Keep stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated.
- Add the broken lasagna noodles and Italian seasoning to the pot. Cook for about 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender. You’ll want to keep an eye on them so they don’t overcook.
- Once the noodles are done, stir in the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Let it melt into the soup, creating that cheesy goodness we all love. It should be thick and creamy.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Give it a final stir and remove from heat. If you like, garnish with fresh basil for a pop of color and flavor.
- Serve hot in bowls, topped with extra mozzarella if desired. Enjoy this cozy dish with your family and watch it disappear!
