DONNA LASAGNA SOUP



Donna Lasagna Soup image

I found this on an Italian website and fell in love with it! I am a fan of Pasta e Fagioli and this is kind of similar, yet different. It makes a hearty soup; and last time I made it I wanted a thinner broth, so I added three 14.5 ounce cans of Chicken Broth and used DaVinci Gnocchi noodles instead of lasagna noodles. The fresh mozzarella is a must -- don't substitute shredded! You will fall in love!
