Lasagna Soup
Makes 4-5 Servings
What You’ll Need:
1.5lb Italian chicken sausage
Capello’s almond flour lasagna sheets
2 tsp minced garlic
1 small yellow onion
28 oz can of crushed tomatoes (I used fire roasted)
1 quart chicken stock
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Pepper
Ricotta cheese
Fresh basil
Instructions:
1. Preheat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook for 5-7 minutes until it's browned.
2. Meanwhile, dice the onion. Once the meat is browned, add the onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper to the meat. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.
3. Then, add 1 quart of chicken stock, a can of tomatoes, and the lasagna sheets (I cut the lasagna sheets into little strips before adding them).
4. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and let it simmer for 15 minutes. Be sure to stir every 5 minutes to prevent the pasta from sticking together or to the bottom.
5. Serve with a dollop of ricotta and a sprinkle of fresh basil. Enjoy!
