- Use high-quality vegetable broth for the best flavor.
- Break the lasagna noodles into smaller pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Stir the soup occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking together.
- Adjust the seasoning to your taste, adding more herbs or spices as desired.
The most important tip is to let the soup sit for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together, creating a more cohesive and delicious dish.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preparing the Broth
Start by heating olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent. Next, add the bell pepper, carrots, and zucchini, cooking until the vegetables are tender.
Add the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Cooking the Pasta
Bring the broth to a simmer, then add the broken lasagna noodles. Allow the noodles to cook in the broth until they are al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking together.
Combining Ingredients
Once the noodles are cooked, reduce the heat and stir in the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Allow the cheeses to melt into the soup, creating a creamy consistency.
Finally, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve the soup hot, garnished with the remaining Parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.

Can I freeze vegetarian lasagna soup?
