→ Cheesy Garlic Toast
17 - 1 small baguette or 4 slices Italian bread
18 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
19 - 2 garlic cloves, minced
20 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
21 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
# Instructions:
01 - Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
02 - Add ground beef or Italian sausage to the pot. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
03 - Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add crushed tomatoes, broth, dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and black pepper.
04 - Bring mixture to a simmer. Add broken lasagne noodles. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender, about 12 to 15 minutes.
05 - Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Combine softened butter and minced garlic. Spread evenly on bread slices. Top each slice with shredded mozzarella and parsley. Arrange on a baking tray.
06 - Bake bread for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted and golden.
07 - Once noodles are tender, stir half of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses into the soup. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
08 - Ladle soup into individual bowls. Top each portion with a dollop of ricotta cheese and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Garnish with fresh basil and serve hot alongside cheesy garlic toast.
