How to Make Italian Style Creamy Alfredo Lasagna Soup
Here’s how this cozy wonder comes together no layering, no baking, just one big pot of flavor.
1. Brown the Sausage
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and brown the Italian sausage until fully cooked. Use a wooden spoon to break it up as it sizzles. Remove and set aside.

2. Sauté Onion & Garlic
In the same pot, toss in chopped onion. Cook for 3–4 minutes, until softened. Add garlic and stir for another minute just until fragrant.

3. Simmer with Broth & Noodles
Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a gentle boil. Stir in broken lasagna noodles and reduce heat to medium. Let it simmer for about 12 minutes, or until noodles are tender.

4. Stir in Alfredo Base
Add the cooked sausage back to the pot. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let everything bubble gently for another 5 minutes.

5. Melt Mozzarella & Serve
Sprinkle in the mozzarella and stir until melted and silky. Ladle into bowls and top with fresh parsley. Grab your spoon… and a napkin.

Tips & Variations
- Swap in rotisserie chicken or meatless sausage for a twist
- Use half-and-half if you want it lighter
- Stir in a handful of spinach at the end for a veggie boost
- No lasagna noodles? Try it with farfalle or penne like in this chicken Caesar pasta salad for added inspiration
You can even turn this into a complete comfort night by starting with that salad and ending with dessert…
What to Serve With It
This soup is hearty enough to stand on its own, but pairing it with a simple side makes it extra special:
- Need a fresh side? This chicken Caesar pasta salad doubles beautifully as a crisp Caesar just skip the pasta if you want it lighter.
- Add a sweet, seasonal crunch with this apple arugula salad bright, juicy, and kid-friendly.
- For a cozy sip that’s family-approved, pour a mug of this mulled cider in a crockpot instead of wine spiced and soul-warming.
- Round things out on a sweet note with pumpkin spice sugar cookies they’re chewy, spiced, and perfect after a savory soup.
Storage & Reheating
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days
- Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave with a splash of broth or cream to loosen it back up
- This one doesn’t freeze well the cream may separate and get grainy
FAQs
Can I freeze this soup?
Not the best idea. Because of the cream and cheese, the texture can get funky once thawed.
Can I make it gluten-free?
Totally! Just use your favorite gluten-free noodles and check your broth for any sneaky wheat-based ingredients.
What can I use instead of sausage?
Ground turkey, chicken, or a plant-based crumble all work beautifully.
