Cooking Steps
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart as it cooks. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until browned.
- In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning and optional crushed red pepper flakes. Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and 1 cup of water, bringing to a gentle boil.
- Once boiling, add the broken lasagna noodles. Stir occasionally and cook for 8-10 minutes until tender.
- Lower the heat and stir in 1 cup of heavy cream. Add the cooked Italian sausage back into the pot.
- Add 3 cups of roughly chopped fresh spinach, stirring until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, and ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, top with the cheesy mixture and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
