Step-by-Step Instructions



- Soften the cream cheese: Pop it in the microwave for 20 seconds and set aside.
- Sauté the aromatics: In a big pot, melt the butter with olive oil. Add onion and cook for 4–5 minutes.
- Garlic + mushroom time: Toss in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and Italian seasoning. Cook until mushrooms are golden and tender.
- Thicken it up: Sprinkle in the flour and stir for a minute this helps create a creamy base.
- Pour in the broth: Add a few cups at a time, whisking constantly. Then stir in the remaining broth and the heavy cream.
- Add the noodles: Gently break the lasagna sheets into pieces and drop them in. Bring the soup to a low boil, then simmer for 15–20 minutes.
- Add the chicken + cream cheese: Stir in the shredded chicken and softened cream cheese until everything is velvety smooth.
- Final touches: Stir in parmesan cheese and spinach. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Let it rest: Give it 5 minutes off the heat it thickens beautifully as it sits.
Make It Creamy Without Fuss
If your cream cheese isn’t melting smoothly, don’t panic whisk it into a small bowl of hot broth first, then stir it into the soup. Works like a charm!

Helpful Tips & Tricks
- If using rotisserie chicken, shred it beforehand and toss it in near the end
- Cream cheese melts best when soft don’t skip that microwave step
- Don’t overcook the noodles or they’ll soak up too much broth
- Want a side that holds its own? Try Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes and Carrots they’re the crispy, cozy sidekick this soup deserves
FAQ
Can I use regular lasagna sheets?
Absolutely! Just break them into smaller pieces before tossing them into the pot.
How do I thicken or thin the soup?
Want it thicker? Let it simmer uncovered a little longer. Too thick? Add a splash of broth or cream.
Can I make it vegetarian?
Sure! Swap the chicken for cannellini beans and use veggie broth instead. Still cozy, still delicious.
