  • 2 cups Alfredo sauce (homemade or store-bought; see this recipe)

How to Make Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

Step 1: Sauté Aromatics and Sausage

  1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium heat.
  2. Add Italian sausage. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned—about 5-6 minutes.
  3. Add diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 2: Build the Broth

  1. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot for extra flavor.

Step 3: Cook Lasagna Noodles

  1. Add broken lasagna noodles directly into the pot. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes or until noodles are al dente.

Step 4: Add Alfredo and Cheeses

  1. Reduce heat to low. Stir in Alfredo sauce and half-and-half until well blended.
  2. Mix in spinach, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheeses are melted and spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5: Serve Your Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

  1. Ladle hot soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh basil (and extra cheese if you like!). Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, comforting goodness.

Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup FAQ

Can I make this soup ahead of time?
Absolutely! Assemble up to 2 days in advance, but for best texture, add the noodles and cheeses when reheating.
What can I use instead of Alfredo sauce?
A homemade béchamel or other creamy pasta sauce, like these options, works well as a base.
How do I keep the soup from becoming too thick?
Lasagna noodles will continue to absorb liquid as they sit; simply add more broth or a splash of milk to adjust consistency as needed.
