This is such a comforting bowl of food. I've been looking forward to the onset of fall just to enjoy this again. I usually replace the veggie ground beef with the lentils, it's such a nice way to get your daily dose of lentils and the textures are just so comfy. I also never have the time to make an actual lasagna, so this is perfect. 10/10, I keep telling people about this.


Stacey S - Sept. 28, 2024, 11:43 a.m.

Yummy and nourishing. Five stars

Joni Dehaspe - June 15, 2024, 7:36 p.m.

Very much recommend. Changed the veggies for carrots and celery because that’s what we had on hand. It turned out delicious. Even our picky toddlers loved it

Thanks for inspiring to make it for my little one, Joni πŸ˜‡


Danielle J - June 1, 2024, 4:56 a.m.

This recipe is incredible! It’s become my go-to over the last year. I add zucchini for extra veggies and use chickpea noodles. I absolutely love it. Every meal from PUL tastes like I’m eating in a restaurant. Thank you! 🫢🏼🀍

Heather Downing - April 17, 2024, 6:07 a.m.

Lasagna without needing to use an oven. What’s not to love?

We might try a stronger mushroom next time because we love mushrooms. I could easily add more leafy greens, like kale. Also, we jazzed it up by adding a dollop of vegan ricotta cheese and a dollop of vegan pesto to our bowls. Wow!

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 17, 2024, 6:43 a.m.

Yess this is one of our favourites, Heather πŸ™Œ love the idea to add some vegan ricotta and pesto too!


Joosje Hendrikx - March 5, 2024, 9:32 p.m.

Hi PUL-team! The comfort of lasagna without the hours in the kitchen! I added some zucchini and carrot because β™₯️ vegetables. Do you think this is freezer friendly? I made a huge batch. Love from Brussels!

PUL small logo PUL Team - March 6, 2024, 6:12 p.m.

We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the lasagna soup, Joosje! Adding zucchini and carrots sounds delicious. We imagine you could freeze it. Just be sure to let it cool completely before portioning it into freezer-safe containers. The noodles might be a bit softer when you thaw it, but it should still be tasty πŸ€—


Ambra - March 2, 2024, 4:02 p.m.

I had some dry lasagna sheets to use up, so i picked this recipe to try it out. Now i am buying lasagna sheets specifically for this recipe πŸ˜‚

Absolutely loved the recipe! At first I thought it’s too much spices but then when I added them and fried a bit β€” Mama Mia! The aromas filled the house! Loved the rich taste, especially because of mushrooms and dark lentils. Thank you team for the amazing recipe!

Julie - Feb. 16, 2024, 12:06 a.m.

I love this recipe. Today is probably the fourth time I've made it in as many months. This time I added a splash of red wine with the mushrooms and soy ground. Not sure what it did exactly, but I felt very chef-y (LOL!)

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 16, 2024, 5:38 p.m.

Love that feeling, Julie πŸ˜…πŸ€Œ we're so glad that the One-Pot Lasagna Soup was enjoyed as well!


Azul - Feb. 4, 2024, 10:25 p.m.

I was in the mood for lasagna and then I found this awesome recipe in the app. I totally loved it! Lasagna but so much easier.

I do have a question, is the measurement of of the lasagna sheets correct? Since I don’t have a scale maybe I just estimated wrong, but I think I put around 200g for 4 portions.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 4, 2024, 10:57 p.m.

Hey Azul, we're so glad the lasagna soup was enjoyed and thanks for the question. We used square sheets for this soup. Our lasagna sheets are around 20 grams each and we used about 5 in this recipe for 4 servings. If you are using the long, rectangular lasagna noodles, they are likely twice the weight, but this soup can certainly handle extra lasagna noodles!


Michelle Limbouris Haddad - Jan. 29, 2024, 8:32 p.m.

This was so good! Could not stop eating it! Will definitely make again.


Sanam - Jan. 21, 2024, 6:49 p.m.

Tastes just like lasagna! I have to say, I'm not vegan or even vegetarian, but I love the app, and I've been a big fan of your recipes. I have ADHD, and I love the Make feature and the timer. Being able to immerse myself in each step of the recipe actually makes cooking enjoyable for me. I'm going to continue using the app as a way to add 1-2 meat free dishes to our week! Keep up the amazing work!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 21, 2024, 11:08 p.m.

Hey there, Sanam, aw thanks for the kind words and support! It means a lot that the step-by-step feature is being enjoyed. That's one of our favourite features in the app. We're excited to continue this culinary adventure together πŸ€—

This is my favorite thing I have recreated from here! It’s sooooo good!🀭


Martunia - Jan. 6, 2024, 6:58 p.m.

This is totally my favorite soup of all time. I don't make it that often, but it's always such a treat. It tastes way better with the mock ground beef than the lentils, in my opinion.


Nova - Jan. 2, 2024, 7:51 p.m.

Super quick and easy recepie! In my opinion the soup came out too sour. Would probably skip the balsamic vinagre for next time! I added agave syrup and some soy sauce to deepen the flavor and sweeten it up! ❀️


Cecilia Vacareanu - Jan. 2, 2024, 3:54 p.m.

This is the first recipe I made from the app since I bought it yesterday.
I have to tell you that this app is awesome because it has so many helpful features. I love the fact that it has it's own timer, that you have the measurements with every step and that the screen stays on while cooking.
As for this recipe, it came out very good although I have used a Beyond Meat burger (minced) instead of the minced soy.
Thank you for the app and all the good recipes!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 3, 2024, 11:36 p.m.

AndrΓ©s - Dec. 31, 2023, 1:37 p.m.

I was skeptical at first when I cooked it because the balsamic vinegar smell was way too strong (maybe it was the brand I used) but I just had it for the first time and I ate 2 of the 5 servings I made πŸ₯΄
It was a blast β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 3, 2024, 2:55 a.m.

Molly W - Nov. 18, 2023, 12:41 p.m.

Snow has started falling here in Stockholm and this was the perfect cozy recipe! I upped the recipe to make 4 but to be honest the portions are so generous, the original recipe of 3 bowls would have stretched out to 4! Super filling! I swapped out fresh spinach for frozen and topped it with lots of nutritional yeast!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 19, 2023, 4:08 a.m.

Ahh winter is coming! Thanks so much for sharing your experience with the lasagna soup, Molly πŸ€—

Another creative recipe that I really enjoyed. My husband doesn’t like mushrooms, so I swapped with zucchini.

Sarah - July 19, 2023, 3:25 a.m.

A bit more involved and took longer than listed for prep. It took me around 1.5hrs of mostly doing something from start of prep to completion of dish. I miscalculated some items since I had to do conversions/math to get all the correct measurements from the packaged ingredients not matching what is needed. So for taste, even tho I had to make some swaps, it is still pretty good. I used lentil lasagna.


Hope - June 27, 2023, 11:16 p.m.

I love this recipe. Works well with a can of black beans instead of veggie ground beef. I also use an entire pound of mushrooms. Super delish!


Maria Larsson - June 25, 2023, 11:25 p.m.

Kathy - Feb. 13, 2023, 3:22 a.m.

Mmmm...this is yummy! I had the same problem mentioned earlier: noodles sticking together. I did stir quite a bit as suggested, but next time I might use a different pasta.

I added some thin sliced zucchini and some leftover olives, and this is definitely a keeper!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 13, 2023, 7 p.m.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with it, Kathy! Pasta sometimes sticks together due to starch so aside from stirring, adding salt to the water and ensuring that the pot is boiling before putting in the noodles can help. Some people also find that rinsing the noodles with cold water before adding them to the boiling soup or adding a small amount of oil can prevent sticking. Just some other ideas in case you're interested, so glad it was enjoyed 🀩

I've made this recipe a number of times and it's one of my son's favourite (and he's a super picky eater). He asks me for it some times! I would just add more water than what's called for in the recipe as mine seems to dry out quite a bit. Maybe my lasagna noodles just take longer to cook. I'll continue to make this often. Thanks for the great recipe. BTW love your website!!! So easy to use and to check/mark the items that I've done as I go through the recipe. Well done :)

PUL small logo PUL Team - Oct. 23, 2022, 7:58 p.m.

Dear Sadia, thank you for another delicious recipe! I made it for my (non-vegan) parents who visited me today and it was a great success!
A question: are your bouillon cubes for 1/2 or 1 liter each? I used 1,5 cubes for 1 liter each, and it was enough salt for us already.
Best wishes from Zuid-Limburg (NL)!

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 22, 2022, 5:48 p.m.

Hey there, Laura! So glad the lasagna soup was enjoyed. The packaging of our cubes suggests using 1 cube per 1/2 litre of water. Using more or less to taste is a lovely idea, as there can be a big difference in taste or water recommendation from brand to brand! Sending hugs to Zuid-Limburg πŸ™‚


Maria - July 14, 2022, 11:36 a.m.

Im allergic to soy, peanuts, beans, lentis and peas (legumes) and gluten. What can i replace the soy veggie ground and brown lentis with?

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 14, 2022, 8:43 p.m.

Hey there, Maria, some ideas could include a nut (such as walnut) based veggie ground, chopped mushrooms, jackfruit, or quinoa. You could also opt to leave out the veggie ground or lentils for less bulk in the soup if desired πŸ™‚


Stacey - May 22, 2022, 10:07 p.m.

Aurora - March 31, 2022, 9:36 a.m.

I made this with lentils and added vegan cheese on top and it was delicious! I have a question though as I had a problem with the lasagna noodles. I stirred the soup for a while once I added them in but they ended up sticking together a lot and struggled to cook because of it so I spent ages trying to separate them myself. Would you have any tips to prevent that?
Thanks a lot for another great dinner :D

PUL small logo PUL Team - March 31, 2022, 10:44 p.m.

We're so glad the soup is being enjoyed, Aurora! Pasta sticking together is sometimes from the starch. Adding the salt, being sure to wait until the pot is boiling before adding the lasagna noodles, and stirring more often should help. Some people also find that rinsing noodles in cold water before adding to the boiling soup contents or adding a touch of oil can help. Do let us know how it goes if you give the soup another try πŸ˜ƒ


Ximena - March 23, 2022, 11:19 p.m.

Shivani - Feb. 13, 2022, 3:01 a.m.

Hi! This looks delicious! Can't wait to try. I love pickuplimes!!
2 quick questions -
- could I substitute the balsamic vinegar? Google says a replacement is red wine vinegar + some maple syrup, wondering your thoughts on that or any other replacements. Want to make this perfect and if balsamic vinegar adds a little oomph I don't want to miss out on that!
- Could I sub fresh for canned diced tomatoes? If so, do I need to adjust any salt or anything like that?
Thanks so much!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 14, 2022, 3:27 a.m.

Hey there, Shivani, thanks for the questions! Balsamic vinegar helps to add flavour and depth to the soup. You could omit it, or experiment with substitutions such as an alternative vinegar with sugar (red wine vinegar and some maple syrup sounds lovely), soy sauce, or lemon juice. You can also use fresh tomatoes in place of the canned if desired. We'd recommend giving the soup a taste test and adding more spices or salt if needed. You can also add some water if it needs a bit more liquid 😊

This soup was not only delicious but also so easy to make! Just the hearty dish my family needed on a cold winter day. The only problem was it was so good there were no leftovers! Next time I'll make a double batch!

So glad it was enjoyed, Heather, a double batch sounds lovely 😎

Totally unexpected. This is delicious and perfect for Montreal's cold winters. I'm in love.

This has to be one of my favourite recipes of yours ! So easy and flavourful, especially for those colder days ! I like to make a huge amount so that I can eat it the next day as well πŸ₯°

Such a lovely compliment, Clara, we appreciate the kind words so much 😍

Just to let you know, not that far from NL (in Brussels), you are 'the chef' of my kitchen. Ever since I've 'discovered you', my cuisine can't live without your receipts. This one I tried today - love it! The simple 'thanks' for your existence is just not enough.

Oh it means so much to hear, Snjezana, thank you for the kind words and support! Hugs to Brussels πŸ€—

Ohhh this recipe is my favourite! I’ve made it so many time, so hearty and good!


Chantel - Nov. 18, 2021, 12:39 a.m.

My family is very opposed to vegan food, insisting the flavor is always lacking but this dish is a winner in my home! This says a lot considering in my culture we primarily eat meat or seafood with rice for most meals.

We're so glad the recipe is being enjoyed, Chantel, thank you for the review :D

I made this recipe with a homemade veggie round - . It was fantastic and will become one of my go to recipes.
Thanks!

Hi PUL team !

I made this yesterday afternoon, but came dinner time, the soy veggie ground had completely absorbed all of the liquid. It became like pasta with vegan bolognese sauce (I left it for around 5 hours). We still enjoyed it but unfortunately the flavor of the soy veggie ground took over the other flavors. I will try this recipe again with lentils to retain the soupy aspect.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Sept. 20, 2021, 3:51 p.m.

Hey Lynda, thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience, and I'm sorry to hear it wasn't quite as you'd hoped. My theory might be that the veggie ground you used was a dehydrated version - could that be possible? The soy veggie ground we use from our local grocery store doesn't absorb any liquid, but I know there are some "textured vegetable proteins" on the market that do indeed absorb a considerable amount of liquid. I'd check your package instructions. If it indicates to first hydrate the soy veggie ground with water, you might want to do that first separately, and then add it to the soup once re-hydrated. I hope this helps for now, and I'm glad to hear the taste will still enjoyed nonetheless 😊

Lynda - Sept. 20, 2021, 10:31 p.m.

I just checked and you are absolutely correct, it is dehydrated! I will rehydrate it next time before using it in the soup. Thanks for taking the time to answer ! πŸ™


Tiffany - Sept. 20, 2021, 12:58 a.m.

This is my new favorite soup! I made it with lentils and it was very delicious. My daughter loved it too and she is a meat lover. Thanks for sharing!!

Aw a huge compliment, Tiffany! So happy you and your daughter are enjoying the soup πŸ˜ƒ


Leah - Aug. 16, 2021, 9:53 p.m.

This is on regular rotation at our house. I make it with ground beef but will try the lentil option soon. Sometimes I add a can of vegetable juice to up the flavor a bit at the end. Crusty bread and a fresh salad and you're good to go! Even better the next day. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Mmm sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing, Leah πŸ˜ƒ


Teo - Aug. 4, 2021, 6:13 p.m.

This is an amazing soup! The concept of Lasagna Soup blew our minds so we had to try it.
I made this recipe 3 defferent ways: actual mince (before we managed to introduce more plant based meals in our diet), Quorn mince (alright but I wasn't a big fan of the texture as I found it too soft), and Pui lentils as we couldn't find brown lentils (this was by far the BEST and I much preferred it to the actual beef).
An amazing recipe, simple to make and it just looks and tastes amazing πŸ₯°

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 5, 2021, 5:42 a.m.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience with this one, Teo! We're so thrilled the lentil version was enjoyed πŸ€—


Jade - July 31, 2021, 5:49 p.m.

I love lasagna, but the traditional way is so time consuming. I love that this whips up pretty fast with little prep on my part. It’s even speedier since I was gifted an Instant Pot. :) It’s one of my go to soups/stews for winter (which last far too long here in Saskatchewan). Even my picky 2 and 7 year olds gobble this up.

So thrilled to hear the lasagna soup was enjoyed, Jade, thank you 🀩


Elizabeth - July 29, 2021, 1:46 a.m.

Love this recipe - make it all the time! Turns out thick and hearty, almost more like a stew than a soup - delicious. (Could also be because I make it without mushrooms - just not my thing, but still delicious!)

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 29, 2021, 11:41 p.m.

We're so happy the recipe was enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your experience with it, Elizabeth ☺️


Yvonne - July 25, 2021, 3:22 p.m.

Made it several times already. It is very delicious! Thank you for this receipe!


Sarah-Jane - July 14, 2021, 8:38 p.m.

This is my go-to winter soup. Sooooo comforting and delicious. Even if you miss an ingredient or two, eating it always ends up feeling like a big warm hug. I love this recipe!


Clare - July 12, 2021, 9:14 p.m.

I made it with brown lentils and it's really delicious! I would only add more spinach since it adds an extra bit of freshness!


Aarika - July 12, 2021, 4:22 a.m.

This is one of my favorite meals. I love having a batch to take for lunch during the week in the winter. I always follow this recipe as is!

Ritz - July 8, 2021, 8:38 p.m.

This soup is AMAZING. I love one pot meals and this one is so good. You get the comfort of lasagna but so much quicker and easier. I love adding a sprinkle of vegan cheese on top. If you add less liquid, it also makes a great, hearty pasta dish.

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 11, 2021, 12:34 a.m.

We're so happy you're enjoying the soup, Ritz, thank you πŸ˜ƒ


Wilma - July 8, 2021, 6:16 p.m.

This recipe is amazing! It's so creamy it doesn't need anything like cheese and it's so easy to prepare. What I like about this recipe is that you can get a lot of veggies in without feeling like you're eating super healthy. I imagine it would be great for kids.

Can't wait to try more of your recipes Sadia!

Michaela - March 31, 2021, 8:52 p.m.

so so good! i made this 100 times. instead of the mushrooms you can use 2 Tbsp. porcini powder (i make my own by grinding dryed mushrooms). For the soy veggie ground i use brown cooked lentils.
thank you to PUL!
The new website is great :-)
