Lasagna Soup

I would have to say that this doesn't hold a candle to the real thing. You just can't beat a bubbly, cheesy pan of noodles and Italian sausage. The one thing this recipe does have going for it is that it is quick. I think the next time I make this (if I do) I would add more veggies to it. It really is a soup more than a lasagna (obviously) and I think the veggies would help with that concept. Enjoy!

1 lb ground beef
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
2 cans beef broth (with onion); or add 1/2 C onion in plain broth
1 can diced tomatoes
1/4 tsp. Italian seasonings
1 1/2 C pasta
1/4 C Parmesan cheese

Cook beef; drain fat (cook onions with this too, if broth is not onion flavored). Stir broth, tomatoes and Italian seasoning together in a stockpot. Heat to a boil. Add pasta, cook for 10 minutes. Stir in cheese. Serve warm, topped with additional cheese, if desired.
