# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly oil the outsides of four oven-safe bowls.
02 - Divide pizza dough into four equal portions; roll each into a ball then stretch into a 6-inch circle. Drape each over a prepared bowl, pressing gently to shape.
03 - Brush dough with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian herbs. Arrange each bowl upside down on a baking sheet and bake 15–18 minutes until golden and crisp.
04 - Allow bowls to cool slightly before carefully removing the pizza crust bowls.
05 - Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté diced onion for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook 1 additional minute.
06 - Add ground beef or turkey, salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes. Brown and break up meat for 5–6 minutes.
07 - Stir in crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, and the broth. Bring mixture to a gentle simmer.
08 - Add broken lasagna noodles and simmer 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are al dente.
09 - Stir in shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and chopped basil. Adjust seasoning as needed.
10 - Ladle hot soup into pizza crust bowls. Top with a dollop of ricotta cheese and additional basil. Serve immediately.
