Ingredients
- 1/2 lb ground sausage
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 5 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 5 lasagna noodles, broken
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup Parmesan, grated
Directions
- In a large pot, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Remove the sausage and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the onion and mushrooms. Cook until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Return the sausage to the pot. Add the chicken broth, broken lasagna noodles, oregano, and basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
- In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for a minute. Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
- Add the milk mixture and grated Parmesan to the soup pot. Stir until the soup is creamy and the cheese is melted.
- Stir in the spinach and cook until it’s wilted.
- Serve hot with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
Cook Notes
For a thicker soup, add an additional tablespoon of flour to the butter and flour mixture.
Variations
