Ingredients

  • 1 jar spaghetti sauce 24 ounces
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 can petite diced tomatoes 15 ounces (not drained)
  • 4 cubes chicken bouillon or 4 teaspoons paste
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 1 pound browned ground beef
  • 1 pound lasagna noodles broken into pieces
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese

Instructions

STOVE TOP DIRECTIONS

  • In large pot bring water, spaghetti sauce, tomatoes, bouillon, garlic, and onion to a light boil.
  • Add ground beef and lasagna noodles. Cover and cook about 20 minutes (stirring occasionally), until noodles are al dente.
  • Stir in mozzarella and ricotta immediately before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and parmesan cheese, if desired.

INSTANT POT DIRECTIONS

  • Add water, spaghetti sauce, tomatoes, bouillon, garlic, and onion to the instant pot inner liner. Stir well.
  • (Note: you can use the sauté feature to brown your ground beef first, but make sure you have scraped all cooked bits off the bottom of the liner before continuing otherwise you may get a burn notice.)
  • Add ground beef and lasagna noodles. Cover and set to sealing, then cook on manual (high pressure) for 9 minutes. Carefully quick release, pausing the release if it begins to sputter.
  • Stir in mozzarella and ricotta immediately before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and parmesan cheese, if desired.

SLOW COOKER DIRECTIONS

  • Add water, spaghetti sauce, tomatoes, bouillon, garlic, and onion to the slow cooker. Stir well.
  • Add ground beef. Cover and set to high for 2 - 3 hours or low for 4 - 6 hours. About 30 minutes before you're ready to serve, use a spatula to break up the cooked ground beef and stir in the broken lasagna noodles. Cover and cook on high until noodles are al dente.
    (Note: you can brown your ground beef first on the stove top if desired.)
  • Stir in mozzarella and ricotta immediately before serving. Top with your favorite garnishes like parmesan cheese and fresh basil.

Notes

  • This is the perfect recipe if you don’t feel like defrosting meat - dump it in frozen and let the hot soup thaw it!
  • Don’t have any ground beef? Try a bag of meatballs!
  • Want to add some more bulk? How about diced peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini.
