  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  4. Add the broken lasagna noodles. Bring to a gentle boil, then simmer for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is tender.
  5. Taste and add the optional sugar if the tomatoes are too acidic. Adjust the seasoning.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Ladle the soup into bowls and add a spoonful of the cheese mixture. Garnish with parsley if desired.
