This is the best lasagna soup recipe I have found by far. It will kill that craving for a plate of lasagna without taking hours of work making it.
Lasagna is probably one of my all-time favorite meals. However, I rarely make it. Not only is it very time-consuming to make, but it is also so fattening and it lasts for days because I always make a huge pan. So I had heard of Lasagna soup but I never dreamed it could taste anything close to the real thing. I was wrong. With ground beef, tomato sauce broth, and multiple kinds of cheese This Lasagna Soup Recipe is a pretty close substitute.
I made this soup in my Instant Pot which I absolutely love. Have you tried any of the other Instant Pot recipes that I have shared? Some of my favorites are Instant Pot Vegetable Beef Soup, Instant Pot Salisbury Steak, and Easy Instant Pot Spicy Chili.
