Tangy tomato, classic Italian seasonings, tender noodles, spicy sausage, and creamy cheeses make every spoonful warm and comforting. All the flavors of homemade lasagna without the work or mess!
In a large pot add your hot Italian sausage, chopped onion, garlic and butter. Over medium heat sauté everything until the meat is fully cooked through.
Add diced tomatoes (do not drain), spaghetti sauce, vegetable broth, chicken bullion cubes, oregano, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper to the pot of cooked meat.
Add heavy cream, cottage cheese, shredded parmesan to the pot. Give everything a big stir to combine and dissolve the bullion cubes.
Break the lasagna noodles into bite size pieces and add to the soup pot. Stir everything to combine.
Allow soup to cook on medium-high heat until the pasta is al dente. After noodles are done remove the pot from the stove and serve topped with mozzarella pearls and enjoy!

Notes
If not a fan of spicy dishes or if you have picky eaters sub out the hot Italian sausage for a mild sausage instead.
If wanting a healthier option or less creamy soup leave out the heavy cream.
Be careful not to overcook the pasta. it will continue to cook in the hot soup even after it has been taken off the heat.
If making this with the intention of freezing or having leftovers prepare the soup as normal but instead cook pasta separately. Cook pasta by itself till al dente to add to soup just before serving.
