Method
Preparation
- Heat olive oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant and translucent.
- Add ground beef and Italian sausage; cook until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in marinara sauce, diced tomatoes (with liquid), chicken broth, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
- Add the broken lasagna noodles and simmer for about 15 minutes until noodles are done. Stir frequently to prevent clumping.
- Before serving, stir in spinach and let it wilt. Adjust spices or broth as needed.
- Serve hot, optionally topped with ricotta cheese or cottage cheese.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use homemade marinara sauce or your favorite store-bought brand. Feel free to add more vegetables, such as bell peppers or mushrooms, for extra nutrition and flavor. If you prefer a bit of spice, increase the amount of red pepper flakes. Make sure to check the package of gluten-free lasagna noodles to avoid any gluten cross-contamination.
