This is the best lasagna soup recipe I have found by far. It will kill that craving for a plate of lasagna with out 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 , it is 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 cheeses 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.
