Crockpot Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Lasagna Soup: This soup combines vegetables simmered with Italian seasonings, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and lasagna noodles. Serve with crusty bread for a wonderfully cozy bowl of soup reminiscent of slow-cooked white lasagna. It’s so delicious. You can make this in the crockpot or on the stove. It’s great for just about any night of the week!
I’m not sure about you all, but our weather has been cold. The days have been sunny, but it’s been cold! It’s definitely winter in Colorado, and it’s really starting to feel like the holidays are here. I can’t wait for Thanksgiving next week!
On the days leading up to Thanksgiving, I love to share some easy, cozy dinner ideas that can be effortlessly made. It’s such a busy time whether you’re preparing to host or looking for the perfect hostess gift! I love this soup because you can let it simmer in the crockpot or make it in under 45 minutes on the stove!
If you’ve never had white lasagna soup, it’s a cream-based soup made with lasagna-style noodles and sometimes chicken. I also have a spicy red lasagna soup with a traditional meat sauce mixed with canned tomatoes, and lasagna noodles!
Both variations are so delicious, but my mom, Asher, and I especially love this sun-dried tomato version. We’re suckers for anything creamy and full of noodles!

Special Tools
This recipe calls for a crockpot. If you don’t have a crockpot, you can use your go-to soup pot! Other than that, nothing fancy here!
Step 1: make the roux
Set your crockpot to high, add the butter, and let it melt. Now add the flour, onion, and garlic, whisking until a paste forms. This is the roux. Cook the roux for 5 or 10 minutes to cook out the flavor of the raw flour.
Step 2: add in everything else
Now, mix in the Italian seasoning, chili flakes, celery, and sun-dried tomatoes.
Pour in the broth and season the soup base with salt and pepper.
Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 1-2.
Step 3: mix in the pasta
Once the soup has simmered low and slow in the crockpot, mix in the cream and the milk.
Add the provolone cheese, spinach, and noodles. I love to use taccole pasta, it looks like mini lasagna noodles and is so fun! If you don’t have any taccole pasta, use broken sheets of dry lasagna noodles. Or try this Mafaldine pasta from Amazon. Any of these will be great!
Allow the pasta to cook for 15 to 20 minutes or so.
Step 4: finish the soup
When the pasta has finished cooking, mix in the Parmesan cheese and ladle the soup into bowls.
I always top this with an herb to add a pop of pretty color. Thyme and basil are my two favorites! Then serve the soup!
This is really nice with a loaf of crusty bread.
If you’re entertaining, try adding a great big holiday salad too!! So delicious!
It’s the creamiest bowl of lasagna-inspired soup. It’s super cozy, and the creamy broth cooks perfectly—low and slow in the crockpot. Scrumptious with cheese and noodles!!
Such a favorite among family and friends!
One last tip
If you’re looking for a freezer meal, freeze the soup base without the noodles. Then, when you’re ready to serve, thaw the soup in a pot, add the noodles, and add an extra cup of water.
Finish cooking as directed – then serve! Super easy!
