# How to Make It:

01 - Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables have softened.
02 - Add minced garlic and cook for one minute until fragrant.
03 - Increase heat to medium-high. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned throughout.
04 - Stir in tomato paste, canned diced tomatoes, oregano, basil, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
05 - Pour in the gluten-free broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
06 - Add the broken gluten-free lasagne sheets. Simmer uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente.
07 - Reduce heat to low and stir in ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and half of the grated Parmesan until they melt into the soup.
08 - Taste the soup and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
09 - Ladle soup into bowls. Drizzle each serving with truffle oil, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan, and garnish with chopped parsley.

02 -
  • High in protein and fiber for a balanced meal

03 -
  • Do not skip sautéing the vegetables thoroughly in step one, that slow build brings incredible flavor
  • Break pasta sheets with your hands for a homestyle look and ensure even cooking
  • Add truffle oil right before serving to preserve its delicate aroma and flavor using too much can overpower the dish
  • Taste as you go and adjust the seasonings after the cheese melts in
  • I once tried to shortcut the simmering time, the soup tasted rushed and flat. Letting the pasta slow-simmer in the broth really gives it that classic lasagne depth.
