How to Make My Healthy Loaded Lasagna Soup with Ground Turkey Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Finely dice the zucchini, mushrooms, half a medium onion, and garlic cloves.

Step 2: Cook the Lasagna Soup
Add the ground turkey meat and Italian seasoning to a large stock pot or enameled large dutch oven. Cook the ground turkey over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until browned. Remove and transfer the ground turkey to a plate.
In the same pot, melt the butter. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until onions are translucent.
Incorporate diced zucchini, sliced mushrooms, and chopped spinach into the pot. Cook until vegetables are tender.
Pour in the chicken broth, marinara sauce and tomato paste, stirring to combine with the turkey and vegetables.
Break the lasagna noodles into pieces and add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for 10-15 minutes until the cooked noodles are fork tender.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.



Step 3: Assemble the Soup
In a separate bowl, mix cottage cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and dried parsley together.
Fill a bowl with soup. Then drop in a dollop of cheese mixture. Gently stir the cheese mixture into the soup as it melts.
Optional: Top with sliced olives and fresh basil.

Easy Ground Turkey Lasagna Soup with Vegetables Recipe Notes
Consistency Adjustment: Adjust the amount of broth based on your desired soup consistency. Add more broth if you prefer a thinner soup.
Adjusting Spice Level: Tailor the Italian seasoning and salt to your taste preferences. Add a black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
Feel free to customize the vegetable mix. Bell peppers, carrots, or celery can be great additions. Ensure they are diced or sliced to match the desired texture.
