Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup

Step 1

To the bowl of a 5-6 quart slow cooker add vegetables, tomato paste, spices and chicken broth. Cover and begin to cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 8). Cook and drain beef of fat, adding cooked meat to the slow cooker. Cover and continue cooking.

Step 2

When 4 hours is up, stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, followed by pasta. If using large or long shaped pasta, break it up into smaller more manageable pieces. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes, or until pasta is tender.

Step 3

Serve with freshly shredded mozzarella.
