    Gather all the ingredients. Rinse and drain the canned cannellini beans. Chop the onion, celery, carrots, and mince the garlic.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.

    Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    Add Broth and Tomatoes

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add the diced tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil.

    Cook the Pasta

    Once boiling, add the dried pasta to the pot. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente.

  5. 6

    Add Beans and Spinach

    Stir in the rinsed cannellini beans and fresh spinach (if using). Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until heated through and spinach is wilted.
