Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Vegetables

  • 1/2 lb ground sausage
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups baby spinach

Soup Base

  • 5 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 5 lasagna noodles, broken
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Alfredo Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup Parmesan, grated

Instructions

  1. Brown sausage and cook vegetables: In a large saucepan over medium heat, brown the ground sausage until fully cooked. Add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms, cooking for 5-6 minutes over medium-low heat until softened.
  2. Add garlic and spinach: Stir in minced garlic and baby spinach, cooking for 1 minute while continuously stirring to meld the flavors and wilt the spinach.
  3. Simmer broth: Pour in the low sodium chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors begin to develop.
  4. Add noodles and herbs: Add the broken lasagna noodles, dried oregano, and dried basil to the pot. Increase heat to bring the soup to a low boil.
  5. Cook noodles: Continue cooking for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender but not mushy, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. Make roux: In a separate skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly until the mixture bubbles and turns slightly golden, forming a roux.
  7. Prepare Alfredo sauce: Gradually whisk in the milk to the roux, continuing to whisk constantly until the mixture becomes smooth and thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Add Parmesan: Remove from heat and slowly whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese. If the cheese does not melt completely, place the skillet over very low heat and whisk continuously until fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
  9. Combine sauce with soup: Slowly pour the creamy Alfredo sauce into the soup pot while whisking to combine thoroughly. Heat through gently if necessary before serving.

Notes

  • Use low sodium chicken broth to better control the salt level in the soup.
  • Feel free to substitute ground Italian sausage for ground breakfast sausage for a different flavor profile.
  • To make the soup vegetarian, omit the sausage and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • For a thicker soup, cook the noodles slightly less and let the soup sit to thicken before serving.
  • Fresh basil can be substituted for dried basil if preferred; add at the end for maximum flavor.
  • Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stove.
