Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 medium Onion diced
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 8 oz Mushrooms sliced
  • 1 medium Zucchini chopped
  • 1 medium Bell Pepper chopped
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 28 oz Marinara Sauce
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth low sodium
  • 12 oz Lasagna Noodles broken into pieces
  • 10 oz Fresh Spinach
  • 15 oz Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Wooden spoon

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until translucent.
  2. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
  3. Add chopped zucchini and bell pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until the edges of the vegetables soften.
  4. Stir in Italian seasoning and dried oregano. Let the heat bloom the spices for 30 seconds.
  5. Pour in marinara sauce and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a slow, rolling boil.
  6. Add broken lasagna noodles. Stir occasionally to ensure they don't stick together. Simmer for about 10 to 12 minutes until the noodles are al dente.
  7. Fold in fresh spinach. The heat of the soup will wilt the leaves in seconds.
  8. While the soup rests, whisk together ricotta cheese and a bit of parmesan in a small bowl.
