Love lasagna? You’ll love this easy-to-make Lasagna Soup that’s ready in 30 minutes!
I hope that y’all had a wonderful Thanksgiving last week! Ours was full of family and thankful hearts. It was great to be with my daddy for Thanksgiving this year. We had a table full of family and food! Thanksgiving food is one of my favorites. All the yummy sweet and savory options to choose from. Yum!
Speaking of last week being Thanksgiving, can you believe that we are in our final days of November?! Between October and January is my absolute favorite time of the year, but I hate how it’s all a blur. People wonder why I pull out my Christmas tree and decorations before Thanksgiving…it’s because it feels like by the time you take the time and effort to put it all up, that it’s time to take it all back down. We like to enjoy it as long as possible. Do you decorate before or after Thanksgiving?
I know that I’ve mentioned it several times before, but we live in the wrong state. I miss seasons changing and leaves falling. I miss going outside and being so cold that you see your breath. I miss having frost on the windows. I miss the cold weather. Florida is nice and all, but we only have two seasons. Summer and Spring. Yep, we skip winter all together. It’s only been super cold a couple of years ago; we actually had ice! I keep saying that we will move from here one day! However, with Kayla going to college next year, and us belonging to a great homeschool group, I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Perhaps when Kelsie is grown.
Coming into December is the perfect time to start enjoying soup! I’ll be honest with ya’ll though…we eat soup and chili in July! haha. I think that if you want to eat it, it doesn’t matter what time of the year it is…well except oysters. Do not eat raw oysters if there is not an “R” in the month’s name! I guess Florida has it’s perks. Haha. Anyway. So soups. Soups are meals that you think of that simmer all day to really have time for the flavors to meld together. Y’all this soup doesn’t need that kind of time. It’s 30 minutes and tastes like it has been simmering all day! It’s the perfect soup to enjoy on those weeknights when you’re cold, and need a quick meal.

What a great idea for a weeknight way to make lasagna! I often want to throw one together on a weeknight but it’s just too much with our busy schedule. This would be perfect.

This is perfect for weeknights!

I know y’all had some mild weather like we have in Florida. Hopefully it will cool off enough for you to make this.

Joanna
Lasagna takes forever to make, and too many steps…I’m with you, this is more my style!

Lasagna, Yes. Soup? I’ll give it a try. My son enjoys Mexican lasagna so thinking I might spice this up just a tad and offer it to him to get his opinion.

Oh my! This looks so delicious. Do you think if I remove the cheese it would affect the awesomeness?

Not at all. The cheese is there to replicate the layers in the lasagna. It’s quite yummy even without the cheese.
