Ingredients
  

Meat & Veggies
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion diced (about 3/4 cup)
  • 1 medium carrot diced (1/2 cup)
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
Seasoning & Base
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 28 oz crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups beef broth
Pasta & Dairy
  • 8 pieces lasagna noodles broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese grated, plus extra for serving
Seasoning
  • salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

Meat & Veggies
  1. Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef, diced onion, and diced carrot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and the onion and carrot are softened, about 5-6 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Seasoning & Base
  1. Stir in garlic, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add crushed tomatoes and beef broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pasta & Dairy
  1. Stir in broken lasagna noodles; cook until noodles are tender, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  2. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese; season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
  3. Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh basil leaves and extra Parmesan before serving.

Notes

Break the noodles into 2-inch pieces by hand for even cooking.
Let the soup cool before refrigerating to preserve creaminess.
Reheat over medium-low heat, adding a splash of broth to prevent the cream from separating.
