Lasagna Soup-Meatless Monday

Welcome to the first Meatless Monday of 2015! It’s been so great connecting with you all and discovering so many great meatless recipes. This month, our focus is soups, stews and chili. That’s just a suggestion of course. Feel free to link up any meatless creation you’d like to share. Tina and I can’t wait to see what yumminess you will have this month.

This Lasagna Soup has all the yummy goodness of lasagna in an easy and filling soup sure to please even the meat eaters in your house. I’ve used “Beyond Meat” soy crumbles (you can use any brand) to add some protein. In my opinion they look just like ground beef in any recipe. This has become a family favorite with my kids. Hope you enjoy!

    Yum! I LOVE the idea of lasagna soup, but I have never made it, now is the time to try, right? Excited for this years meatless monday!

  2. Sara @ Lake Shore Runner says

    I LOVE Lasagna – I had it twice over Christmas break. So I would love it in other forms too! I am going to try this out 🙂

    My favorite soup is Chili, but only my moms. If we are talking generally it would be French Onion or Cream of Mushroom.

    Happy Monday!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      Well maybe you can snag one of those recipes from your mom and link it up. I love cream of mushroom too. This soup is great-lighter than traditional lasagna but still yummy.

  5. Mary Beth Jackson says

    WE are big soup eaters here. I have never tried the soy crumbles before. My hubby would want to use venison in this recipe for sure. Happy Monday!

  6. Chaitali says

    Yum… I love lasagna but would have never thought of combining the flavors into a soup. My favorite soup is probably a corn chowder. We’re experimenting with a vegetable chowder tonight so I might be doing a post about it later this month if it works out well.

  7. Jennifer @ Running on Lentils says

    Oh, yum! Definitely adding this to my must-try list! I like the theme of soups and stews for this month. It’s the perfect time of year for soup, so I’ll be sure to post one of those recipes next time.

  9. RFC says

    Lasagna and soup are two items I would have never thought to put together! This looks really good, a great one for a cold winter night!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      Oh it’s way better to make your own! They are really easy to cook with because you can throw them in frozen. I use them for everything.

  11. Sarah says

    This sounds delicious, I bet my oldest would love it! I love Beyond Meat! My oldest likes it better than meat, my youngest isn’t a fan of meat in general so she doesn’t like either but will eat some dishes with Beyond Meat. My husband well he likes his meat and isn’t a fan of the Chicken Free Chicken but will eat the beef crumbles.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      Confession: my husband is a total carnivore! It makes for interesting meals around here. It’s so easy to cook with the soy crumbles-I love them.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      There are many different brands. Beyond meat is probably my favorite for taste and texture. Morningstar is my second choice. Give it try!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      Thanks! It is the perfect soup for the cold days ahead. I guess you could leave off the cheese on top to go vegan. That’s why I can’t be Vegan I need cheese!

  20. AlexandraFunFit says

    I tried Beyond Meat at the IDEA Fitness convention and loved it so much that I now have about 6 bags in my freezer. This recipe looks great.

  24. Rachel says

    Okay seriously… yet ANOTHER fantastic meatless recipe! How do you do it!? Love it. I love lasagna too… I will HAVE to try this! 🙂

  25. elena says

    Yay for soup (as I realize that I should have made some in preparation for the impending snow!)! Looks delicious!

  28. Stephanie says

    I LOVE lasagna and I love soup! What a perfect combination! I have never used soy crumbles. But this is a great reason to! Thanks for this idea.

  31. MCM Mama says

    This sounds really good. I’m not a fan of “fake” meats, so I might try the garbanzo bean suggestion above or maybe navy beans (or some sort to actual meat, shhh.)

    • Deborah Brooks says

      The fennel was great. In this small amount it didn’t really seem too noticeable. I like the soy crumbles bc they add a ton of protein and give a heartier feel to the soup. I’ve been a vegetarian my whole life so I can’t attest to how “meatlike” they are but my family likes them and they eat meat.

  39. Lynda@fitnessmomwinecountry says

    I just saw this link up Deborah, how fun. My most fave type of meal EVER is soup. Any kind, anytime, anywhere, any season. Soup, soup, soup. I added a tasty one on the link and have a soup section on the blog. Now to check out these other tasty recipes 🙂

    • Deborah Brooks says

      Awesome so glad to have you join us too! I love soup this time of year too although it’s a lot colder here 🙂 heading over to check yours out

  40. Natalie says

    I love lasagna so much, but have never tried a soup! It looks fantastic. I will definitely make this for the fam. Thanks!! 🙂
