- Lasagna Noodles
- Spinach
- Ricotta Cheese

Instructions
- In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the ground chicken (or turkey) and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks—about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Stir in the heavy cream (or half-and-half) and bring the soup back to a gentle simmer.
- Break the lasagna noodles into smaller pieces and add them to the pot. Cook according to the package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes, until they are tender.
- Once the noodles are cooked, add the spinach and let it wilt for about 2 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in dollops of ricotta cheese until well combined.
- Finally, season the soup with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
