- 5 cups chicken broth
- 1 jar (15 oz) Alfredo sauce

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Meat
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground chicken (or beef) and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
Step 2: Add Aromatics
Stir in onion and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Step 3: Build the Soup Base
Pour in chicken broth, Alfredo sauce, and diced tomatoes. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil.
Step 4: Add Pasta
Break lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces and add them to the pot. Simmer for about 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender.
Step 5: Make it Creamy and Cheesy
Reduce heat to low. Stir in heavy cream, mozzarella, and Parmesan until melted and creamy.
Step 6: Serve
Ladle into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley or basil, and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Lasagna Soup
- Thicker soup: Simmer longer to reduce liquid.
- Lighter version: Use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- Extra cheesy: Top each serving with a dollop of ricotta.
- Meal prep friendly: Store leftovers in the fridge for 3–4 days (add extra broth when reheating).
Serving Suggestions
- Serve with garlic bread or crusty baguette.
- Add a simple green salad for balance.
- Top with red pepper flakes for a little heat.
This Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup is the ultimate comfort food—rich, filling, and bursting with flavor. It’s everything you love about lasagna in a warm, cozy bowl.
