It’s been rainy and cold here in Lathrop, CA, and you know we are currently in that soup mode. This meatless lasagna soup is a huge hit with my family.
Meatless Lasagna Soup made with impossible Italian Sausage, two types of cheese, tomato sauce, and a few seasonings. The perfect easy dinner for those cold winter nights, or serve it during your holiday dinner.
Impossible Italian Sausage, made from plants, look and cook like any savory sausage. These nutrition-packed sausage links are an excellent source of plant protein. In addition, it contains 0 cholesterol and no added nitrates/nitrites. It is also 30% lower in total fat than regular pork sausage.
Why Lasagna Soup?
Make it ahead of time by preparing the meat and sauce. Then, wait to add the noodles. Next, store the soup in the refrigerator, and when ready to serve, add the remaining ingredients.

What to serve with Lasagna Soup?
If you are serving this as a starter for your holiday dinner, you can serve it on its own. But make sure to add a dollop of ricotta and parm cheese on top. If you plan to serve this as a main dish, pair it with dinner rolls, garlic bread, and a side salad.
