- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium sweet onion chopped
- 1 medium green pepper chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 32 oz beef broth
- 28 fl oz can whole peeled tomatoes pulsed in blender
- 24 oz pasta sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups lasagna noodles broken
- 5 oz grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cups mozzarella
Brown the ground beef, onion, and pepper in a large dutch oven. It should be broken into fine particles and cooked till juices run clear.
Add the garlic to the dutch oven during the last minute or two of cooking.
Now add your brown sugar, beef broth, tomatoes, pasta sauce, oregano, basil and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes.
Add the noodles and simmer until they are tender.
Stir in the parmesan cheese.
Turn on your broiler. Allow it to preheat properly.
Transfer soup into ovenproof soup bowls. Top with oodles of cheese. Place the bowls in the oven and broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and serve.
Beef Broth Notes: You can mix 4 cups boiling water with 1 to 2 tablespoons of better than bouillon beef base if you don't have a liquid broth.
Tomatoes Notes: I recommend using San Marzano tomatoes if you can find them.
Pasta Sauce Notes: I used Ragu Sauteed Onion and Garlic but any pasta sauce you love will work. Rao is tasty, and homemade is always amazing.
Cheese Notes: I highly recommend pizza mozzarella but any mozzarella will work for this recipe.
