1 small onion, chopped
8 oz. sliced cremini mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups baby spinach, stems removed
5 cups chicken broth
5 lasagna noodles, broken into smallish pieces
1 tsp. dried oregano
½ tsp. dried basil
3 Tbsp. butter
3 Tbsp. flour (I use Wondra)
1 cup milk
½ to 1 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
1 piece rind from Parmigiano Reggiano cheese (optional)
  • Brown sausage in large cooking pot over medium heat.
  • Add onions and mushrooms, cooking another 5-6 minutes over medium-low heat.
  • Add spinach and garlic, cooking for 1 minute while stirring.
  • Add chicken broth and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add oregano and basil and broken lasagna noodles, stirring well, and bring to a low boil.
  • Cook for 10-12 minutes or until noodles are tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat melt butter; whisk flour into melted butter and continue cooking for 1 minute, whisking constantly until mixture is bubbling.
  • Slowly whisk in milk until mixture is smooth and thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Turn off heat and slowly whisk in cheese; when cheese is fully incorporated and mixture is creamy, slowly whisk into soup mixture.
Serve with garlic bread or a hearty artisan bread.
