Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the ground beef. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it into small pieces as it browns. Drain any excess grease if needed.
  2. Add the minced garlic and diced onion to the pot, stirring together. Cook for about 5 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and optional tomato paste. Mix well, then add the broken lasagna noodles.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes until noodles are tender and soup thickens slightly.
  5. Fold in the frozen chopped spinach and pour in the heavy cream. Stir gently and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Serve by placing slices of mozzarella cheese at the bottom of each bowl, ladling the hot soup on top, and finishing with dollops of ricotta and optional parmesan.
