How to Make White Chicken Lasagna Soup

Sauté the Veggies: In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté chopped onions, carrots, celery, and minced garlic until they soften and become fragrant.

Add Chicken and Broth: Toss in the boneless chicken breasts along with chicken broth. Bring everything to a boil while stirring occasionally—smell that deliciousness rising?

Simmer Until Cooked Through: Reduce heat to low after boiling and let it simmer for about 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. You’ll know it’s ready when it’s no longer pink inside.

Add Cream Cheese and Seasonings: Remove chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Stir in softened cream cheese and Italian seasoning until fully incorporated into that rich broth.

Toss in Pasta and Spinach: Add broken lasagna sheets or your chosen pasta directly into the soup along with fresh spinach. Cook until pasta is tender—about 10 minutes will do.

Finish with Parmesan Cheese: Before serving, stir in grated parmesan cheese until melted. Serve hot with extra cheese on top if desired—because why not?

Now you have a delightful bowl of White Chicken Lasagna Soup ready to warm your heart! Enjoy every comforting bite while basking in the delight of home-cooked goodness.
