Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup
This sounds really delicious, on my to cook list. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 250 grams ground Italian sausage, OR make from a shortcut
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 250 grams fresh mushrooms, variety is up to you
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 4 cups spinach, I think frozen (thawed) would work here
- 5 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Brown ground sausage in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and mushrooms; cook 5 to 6 minutes over medium low heat. Add garlic and spinach and cook for 1 minute while stirring. Add chicken broth and simmer for 5 minutes. Add broken lasagna noodles, oregano, and basil then bring to low boil. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until the noodles are tender.
- Meanwhile in skillet over medium low heat melt butter then whisk in flour and continue cooking for 1 minute; whisking constantly. The butter/flour mixture should be bubbling. Slowly whisk in the milk until mixture is smooth and thickened; about 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off heat and slowly whisk in Parmesan cheese. If cheese is not melting place over very low heat and whisk constantly. When Parmesan is fully melted and mixture is creamy slowly add to soup mixture stirring it in. Serve.
Notes
The Parmesan cheese would cost about 180 Baht for 1 cup of grated cheese. Ground pork would cost about 26 Baht for 250 grams if making the sausage yourself. I have never seen bulk sausage, this would even be cheaper if you ground the pork yourself. For 4 servings, this is about $1.52 per serving.
