# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ Main

01 - 450 grams ground beef
02 - 3 garlic cloves, minced
03 - 1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
04 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
06 - 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
07 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
08 - 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
09 - Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
10 - 400 grams canned crushed tomatoes
11 - 950 milliliters chicken broth, plus extra if needed
12 - 240 milliliters water
13 - 2 teaspoons tomato paste
14 - 170 grams lasagna noodles, broken into small pieces
15 - 130 grams frozen spinach
16 - 60 milliliters cream

→ Cheeses

17 - Ricotta cheese, for serving
18 - 115 grams mozzarella cheese, sliced
19 - Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)

# How to Prepare:

01 - Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain excess fat.
02 - Add minced garlic and chopped onion to the pot. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes until onions are softened and fragrant.
03 - Pour in crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste. Add broken lasagna noodles. Stir to combine.
04 - Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
05 - Stir in frozen spinach and cream. Simmer uncovered for an additional 5 minutes.
06 - Place a slice of mozzarella cheese in the bottom of each serving bowl. Ladle the soup over the cheese, then top with a generous dollop of ricotta cheese and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese if desired.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For a thicker consistency, keep cooking uncovered for a few extra minutes. To loosen the soup, add additional chicken broth to achieve your preferred texture.
02 - Adding mozzarella cheese to the serving bowl before ladling in the soup creates a creamy, melty layer.
