Instructions
- Brown the meat. In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook ground beef and sausage until browned. Season with salt and pepper as you cook. Drain grease and remove meat from the pot.

- Add sauce and spices. Stir in tomato paste, marinara sauce, spices, and broth. Return meat to the pot.
- Add lasagna noodles. Bring the pot to a boil then add lasagna noodles (broken into 4ths) to pot and reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender. Add spinach, if using.

- Serve warm. Ladle the hot soup into bowls, and dollop a scoop of the cheese mixture on top. Garnish with fresh basil.
Diet-by-diet
High in saturated fat and sodium from sausage, cheeses, and broth; refined pasta limits its fit despite some vegetables.
Uses olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, basil, and spinach but relies heavily on red meat, sausage, and dairy rather than fish or legumes.
Contains beef, sausage, and three cheeses — fundamentally non-vegan.
Beef and sausage fit, but the pasta, onion, garlic, tomato sauce, and spinach are all disallowed.
Wheat lasagna noodles, dairy cheeses, and processed sausage all violate paleo principles.
Lasagna noodles and tomato-based broth make the carb load too high for keto despite the meat and cheese.
Onion, garlic, wheat pasta, and ricotta are all high-FODMAP triggers.
Dairy, grains, and likely-additive-laden sausage and marinara all break Whole30 rules.
Has protein, carbs, and fat, but ratios skew heavy on refined carbs and saturated fat versus lean protein.
Tomato, garlic, spinach, and olive oil help, but red meat, sausage, refined pasta, and full-fat dairy add inflammatory load.
Decent protein from meat and cheese supports satiety, but refined pasta and fatty meats push calorie density up; portion control matters.
