Method
Sauté the Aromatics
- Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add diced onions and minced garlic. Cook until onions are translucent and garlic is fragrant.
Build the Vegetable Base
- Add diced bell peppers, zucchini, and sliced mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5 to 7 minutes until the mushrooms release their moisture and the peppers soften slightly.
Add Liquid and Herbs
- Pour in marinara sauce and vegetable broth. Stir in dried basil and oregano. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
The Noodle Phase
- Add broken lasagna noodles directly into the pot. Ensure they are submerged. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Adjust liquid levels if needed.
Wilt the Greens
- Once the pasta is tender, turn off the heat and stir in the spinach. The residual heat will wilt the leaves in about thirty seconds.
Prepare the Cheese Ricotta Garnish
- In a small bowl, mix ricotta cheese with parmesan and a dash of black pepper.
Serve
- Ladle the soup into deep bowls. Place a generous dollop of the ricotta mixture in the center and let it slowly melt into the red sauce.
