It's Christmas morning and I couldn't think of a better gift to give than the gift of lasagna. This one pot lasagna soup is creamy, cheesy, and loaded with a classic bolognese sauce.

What is lasagna soup?
I promise you're not the only person who has asked that question.
The answer is simple really. Lasagna soup is one of the most amazing creations to ever come out of my kitchen. It's lasagna that's made in one pot, with twice the amount of sauce and cheese (this is where things get really soup-y), in significantly less time than traditional lasagna. Did I mention it's gluten free??
So yes, you need lasagna soup in your life.
Gluten free lasagna noodles
These gluten free no boil lasagna noodles are my personal favorite to use in this soup. Not only are they pretty darn close to the real thing (if you've tried a few different gluten free pastas you know how big this is), they are also no boil.
Meaning, you just add them to whatever recipe you're using them in and throw it in the oven and you're done! And that's exactly what this recipe calls for.
If you can't get your hands on gluten free lasagna noodles, or lasagna noodles in general, any kind of noodle will do! Today all I had on hand were these brown rice elbow noodles. Use what you have on hand.
One pot meals
In the cold winter months, there's nothing we love more than a one pot meal. They're hearty, satisfying and easy to make/clean up.
That's what makes this one pot lasagna soup so special! It has all the elements of a lasagna we love: spicy Italian sausage, a rich, flavorful sauce and lots of cheese.
And yet, it's made in one pot with very few dishes left in your sink, unlike a traditional lasagna. There's no boiling noodles separately, no making two different sauces, and no layering of ingredients in baking dishes baked with sticky cheese.
Instead, ingredients are added one by one to your oven safe soup pot, until the lasagna soup has the perfect consistency. And that's it!

Happy cooking!
