If you love the flavors of lasagna, you’re going to love this recipe. It’s everything good and delicious about lasagna without all of the fuss of layering and baking.

The soup starts out with roasted cherry tomatoes (game changer compared to a jar of tomato sauce), then layers in sautéed onions and garlic, red wine, all blended to delicious soup base perfection. Once that’s done, the lasagna noodles get tucked into the soup, and everything gets finished off with the most delicious ricotta and mozzarella mixture. It’s heaven in a bowl, y’all.

Recipe Ingredients

Find ingredient notes (including substitutions and swaps) below.

  • Vegetable broth – this recipe calls for vegetable broth, but if you have chicken broth on hand, feel free to use that instead.
  • Red wine – you’ll need a half cup of red wine for this recipe, but if you’d prefer to not use wine (or just don’t want to buy a bottle for this recipe alone), feel free to use 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar in its place.

A full ingredient list with exact amounts can be found in the recipe card below.

Recipe Variations and Modifications

  • Make it gluten-free – use gluten free lasagna noodles (we used Jovial’s gluten-free lasagna noodles) to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • Make it dairy-free – if you’re dairy-free, grab dairy-free ricotta and mozzarella in place of the regular stuff. Either skip the parmesan garnish or use a DF parmesan substitute (many grocery stores sell dairy-free cheese options now!).
  • Add some protein – if you aren’t in need of a vegetarian lasagna soup, feel free to add a pound of cooked and crumbled Italian sausage to the soup.

Recipe Tips

  • If you don’t want to roast the cherry tomatoes yourself (highly recommended, but time doesn’t always allow for it!), use a 28-ounce can of whole peeled tomatoes instead.
  • Add some protein to the lasagna soup by cooking and crumbling a pound of ground Italian sausage before sautéing the garlic and onion.

How to Serve

Serve your lasagna soup all on its own or alongside some crusty homemade bread and a simple arugula salad.

How to Store and Reheat

Store any leftover lasagna soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To freeze your soup, simply remove the lasagna noodles (if you’re freezing leftovers – they won’t freeze well) and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

To reheat your soup from the refrigerator, simply pop a serving in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or in a pot over medium heat on the stovetop for 7-8 minutes until warmed through.

To reheat from frozen, simply let the soup sit in the fridge overnight, then transfer it to a pot on the stove to heat until warmed through. While the soup is heating, make another batch of lasagna noodles and add those in before serving.
