This is best enjoyed soon after it’s made as the lasagna noodles will start to soften when it sits. Leftovers will keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can be reheated on the stovetop. You may want to add a little water or stock to the pot when you reheat it as the noodles will have absorbed liquid.

It’s best not to freeze this soup as there’s a lot of dairy in it. When dairy is frozen and thawed, the texture can change quite considerably and become grainy.

Yes of course, chicken thighs will work great in this recipe. Just be sure that they are fully cooked when you shred them as they will require a few extra minutes of cooking time.

Soups are a great way of using up veggies you have in your fridge. Bell peppers, mushrooms or carrots would all work great.

Serving Suggestions

This white chicken lasagna soup is a full meal by itself, but you can easily serve it up with bread or salad sides if you like. Try it with:

Homemade Dinner Rolls

Cornbread Muffins

This soup is sure to warm your soul and leave you feeling full and satisfied.

Tips!

Other types of pasta will also work well in this soup, penne, macaroni or bow tie are all great choices.
Use a low fat cream cheese and half and half to reduce calories and fat, though it won’t be as rich and creamy.
Make this soup gluten-free by using GF flour and noodles.

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.

Essential Grocery List

It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!

It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.

However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.

In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.

I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.
