How To Make lasagna soup w/ garlic crostini

1
GARLIC CROSTINI: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2
Cut bread into 1/4" round slices. Place on baking sheet & brush each slice with olive oil. Season with salt & pepper, rub each side with smashed garlic cloves, sprinkle with mozzarella cheese; place in oven & bake until golden & crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven & let cool slightly.
3
SOUP: In a large Dutch oven, combine ground chuck, onion, bell pepper & garlic. Cook over medium high heat for 8 - 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until beef is browned & crumbles. Drain well.
4
Stir in thyme, brown sugar, broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning & salt. Bring to a boil over medium high heat; reduce heat & simmer 20 minutes. Add noodles & simmer until noodles are tender. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
5
Preheat broiler. Ladle soup into 8 - 10 ovenproof bowls. Evenly sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Broil soups, 6" from heat, 3 - 4 minutes, until cheese is browned & bubbly. Add a garlic crostini slice on top. Serve immediately.
