Cooking Steps
- Microwave the cream cheese in 20-30 second intervals until it's very soft.
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add in the mushrooms and Italian seasoning. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until the mushrooms have released their water and it's cooked off.
- Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring almost constantly, for about a minute.
- Stir in the first 2 cups of the chicken broth and ensure that all the flour has dissolved, then add the remaining 4 cups broth.
- Add in the cream and lasagna noodles. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce the heat so it's simmering fairly gently. Give it a good stir then cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring a couple of times to ensure that the noodles aren't sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Add in the chicken and cream cheese (cut into smaller pieces). Increase the heat slightly to help the cream cheese melt in faster, stirring until it has melted in (about 3-5 minutes).
- Stir in the parmesan and spinach and let the cheese melt in and spinach wilt for a few minutes. Season with salt & pepper as needed.
