In a large pot, brown and crumble 1 pound ground beef along with 1 small onion, diced and 1 green bell pepper, diced.
Add in 3 cloves garlic, minced during the last couple of minutes of cooking so it doesn't burn and stir.
Drain excess grease from the ground beef mixture. Put ground beef back into the pot.
Stir in 1 teaspoon ground thyme, 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 32 ounce carton chicken broth, 2 (14.5 ounce) cans petite diced tomatoes, and 15 ounce can tomato sauce. Stir well and bring mixture up to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover and gently simmer for about 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, add in 2 cups broken lasagna noodles Stir. Simmer until noodles are tender (about 10 or so minutes). Stir occasionally.
Finally, stir in 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Ladle soup into bowls. Then top each bowl with shredded mozzarella cheese or a dollop of ricotta cheese.

You'll need about 6 whole lasagna noodles to make about 2 cups broken.
We like to serve this with a side salad and some garlic bread.
If you can find Mafalda (or Mafaldine) noodles - they look like little lasagna noodles and work perfect in this. They aren't easy to find but look really nice in this dish!
