In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef and onion over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat into small pieces until fully browned.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 30 seconds. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the tomato paste, balsamic vinegar, sugar, dried basil, dried parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper into the meat and onions.
Add the pasta sauce, 6 cups of chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, and bay leaf. Stir to combine well.
Add the broken lasagna noodles, bring the soup to a boil, then reduce to a simmer over low to medium heat, cooking until the noodles are tender (about 20-25 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove and discard the bay leaf, stir in heavy cream (optional), and add an additional 2-4 cups of chicken broth to reach the desired consistency.
Garnish the soup with mozzarella cheese, dollops of ricotta cheese, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley as desired.
