Easy Lasagna Soup

I've mentioned it before, but easy meals are my favorite. I have an even greater appreciation for them now that I've got a full-time job. The recipe that I'm about to share is super simple to make and it can be frozen and defrosted for those days when you simply don't have time to cook. Yes, it's a soup and yes, I know that it's August. However, the temperature has actually dropped a little here on the island, so I say it's totally fine to eat soup in the summer!
