Instructions

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in lasagna noodles and return to boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just flexible, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer noodles into cold water until cooled, drain well.

Add 2 tbsp olive oil to soup pot, and place on high heat. Add beef, use spatula to break up the meat into small pieces, cook until meat is brown.
