Lasagna Soup

Last night for dinner, I decided to try this Lasagna Soup. I've seen some recipes for it on Pinterest and it looked so yummy! It definitely was, as both the husband and I enjoyed it! Perfect for a cool/cold January day!

1 small onion, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
32 oz. chicken broth
1 14 oz. can organic tomato sauce
1 14.5 oz. can organic diced tomatoes
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
salt and pepper, to taste
8 broken lasagna noodles 
1/2 tsp. dried basil
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Parmesan cheese

1. In large skillet, combine ground beef, onion and green pepper. Cook on medium-low until ground beef is browned and crumbles, stirring occasionally. Drain grease.
