I make this soup all the time!!! My tips? 1. Cook the noodles separately (mafalde, farfalle, conchiette, any smaller pasta will do!!) - otherwise, they swell and absorb all of the liquid!! 2. I omit green pepper since that's not in a classic lasagne. 3. I dollop a spoonful of reduced fat ricotta cheese on top. 4. ALWAYS DOUBLE THE RECIPE - people LOVE This, and they come back for more!!! Thank you for posting!! ~Chrissie
