All the comforting flavours of lasagna, without the fuss of layering. Using our Organic Beef Mince, this hearty soup is the perfect midweek meal — rich, cheesy, and ready in under an hour.
Ingredients:
-
400g Organic Beef Mince
-
6–8 lasagna sheets, broken into bite-sized pieces
-
1 red onion, finely diced
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 red bell pepper, diced
-
1 tbsp tomato purée
-
1 tin (400g) chopped tomatoes
-
500ml vegetable stock
-
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
-
1 tsp dried basil (or fresh if you have it)
-
Salt & black pepper, to taste
-
50ml single cream
-
50g mozzarella, grated
-
50g mature cheddar, grated
-
50g Red Leicester, grated
Method:
-
In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil and gently fry the onion, garlic and red pepper until softened.
-
Add the beef mince and cook until browned, then stir in the Worcestershire sauce.
-
Mix through the tomato purée, chopped tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper.
-
Pour in the vegetable stock, then break the lasagna sheets directly into the pan. Stir well and leave to simmer until the pasta is tender (about 12–15 minutes).
-
Reduce the heat, then stir in the cream and all three cheeses. Allow to simmer gently for a few more minutes until the soup is thickened and luxuriously cheesy.
To serve: Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with extra cheese, and enjoy alongside warm garlic bread.
