  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 8 ounces uncooked lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How to Serve Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

Serve the soup hot. You can garnish it with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese to enhance its flavor. This soup pairs well with crusty bread or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

How to Store Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

To store leftovers, let the soup cool completely. Transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the soup in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. When reheating, add extra broth or cream if needed, as the noodles may absorb some of the liquid over time.

Tips to Make Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup

  • Use a variety of Italian sausage for different flavors—spicy or sweet.
  • Customize the soup by adding vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra nutrition.
  • For a lighter version, you can substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, cook it uncovered for a few additional minutes to let it reduce.
