Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups chicken broth
One 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried oregano
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 bay leaf
8 ounces lasagna noodles (about 10 noodles), broken into pieces
Handful chopped fresh basil
Shredded mozzarella, for topping
Sliced provolone, for topping
Grated Parmesan, for topping
Directions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the beef, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Season with the garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- In a slow cooker, combine the beef with the chicken broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, parsley, oregano, garlic, onion, bay leaf, 1 cup water and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook on high for 5 1/2 hours or on low for 7 1/2.
- Stir in the lasagna noodles and continue to cook for another 30 minutes. Stir in the basil just before serving.
- Preheat the oven to broil.
- Ladle the soup into ovenproof bowls. Top each with a few tablespoons of shredded mozzarella, a slice of provolone and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Place on a baking sheet and heat under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly, 5 to 8 minutes.
