Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Italian sausage mild or hot
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 15-ounce jar Alfredo sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 lasagna noodles broken into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach chopped (optional)
  • Fresh basil sliced, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Brown the Italian sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles. Add the onion and cook until softened, then stir in the garlic for 30 seconds. Drain any excess grease.
  2. Transfer the sausage mixture to the crockpot.
  3. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, Alfredo sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir until combined.
  4. Cover and cook on Low for 5 to 6 hours or High for 2½ to 3 hours.
  5. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the broken lasagna noodles.
  6. Cover and cook until the noodles are tender.
  7. Stir in the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and spinach, if using, until melted.
  8. Serve each bowl with a spoonful of ricotta cheese and garnish with fresh basil.

Notes

  • Browning the sausage first adds deeper flavor.
  • Break the lasagna noodles into small, even pieces for easier serving.
  • Stir the noodles once during the final cooking stage to prevent sticking.
  • Add the cheeses at the end to keep the soup smooth and creamy.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan melts better than pre-shredded cheese.
