This delicious gluten-free lasagna soup recipe is full of all the wonderful flavors of lasagna with the ease and comfort of soup.
Gluten-Free Lasagna Soup
This soup is definitely going on my soup rotation list. All the flavors of lasagna but without the gluten or dairy. You will not miss any of it. I use a combination of coconut milk and nutritional yeast to give it the creamy feel and taste of cheese. And you can’t taste the flavor of coconut at all, so no worries there.
Ingredients for Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Lasagna Soup

*I used Jovial Gluten-Free Lasagna noodles. They have two different styles. I used their flat ones in these pictures and I found them at Walmart. The other style has a more familiar shape with the curly edges and I’ve found those through Thrive Market or VitaCost. Either style will work great.
How to Make Gluten-Free Lasagna Soup
Start by bringing a medium-large pot of water to boil. Break lasagna noodles into bite-size pieces. Once the water is boiling add a 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the broken lasagna. Bring back to a boil and cook for about 4-5 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Drain the water off and drizzle with a little bit of olive oil. Set aside.
In a Dutch oven or large pot brown the sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. Once browned add the diced onion and continue to cook for 3-4 more minutes or until the onions become translucent.
Add the crushed garlic, basil, oregano, and tomato paste. Stir to combine.
Next, pour in the crushed tomatoes and the chicken broth then stir. Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes stirring occasionally.
Next, add in the whisked coconut milk and nutritional yeast and combine. Then stir in the cooked lasagna noodles. Reduce heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then serve.
Tips for This Recipe
If you’re not planning all of this soup at once, then you might want to keep the noodles separate and add only a serving of them to your bowl and then add the soup.
Having the noodles combined in the soup in the refrigerator will thicken the soup, so alternately you could just plan on adding water to the soup when reheating it to thin it back out.
If you have any leftover tomato paste or crushed tomatoes you can freeze them for another recipe or store them in your refrigerator for 3-4 days.
You can substitute ground beef in place of the Italian sausage if you prefer.
Italian seasoning can be used in place of the basil and oregano. Use 4 teaspoons to substitute.

You think I could use lactose free whole or 2% milk instead of coconut milk? It looks amazingly delicious!

I know I already replied on Instagram, so this is for anyone else curious. If you don’t need it to be dairy-free you could use add a combination of milk and mozzarella cheese in place of the coconut milk and nutritional yeast. The coconut milk adds fat content as cheese would and the nutritional yeast has a cheesy flavor.

Can I omit the nutritional yeast? Why do I need that? Never used it before.

Nutritional yeast has a cheese flavor so when making dairy-free recipes it adds a delicious cheesy flavor. You can leave it out but it does add great flavor.
