Tuscan vegetable bean soup

3 cans cannelloni beans, drained
1 can diced tomatoes
3 stalks celery, diced
1 onion diced ( one onion)
1 cup or more diced carrots (3 carrots)
1 tsp minced garlic
2 small zucchini diced
6 cups veggie or chicken broth (1 box)
salt (1 tsp)  and pepper (1/2 tsp)
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried sage
1 cup or more chopped fresh spinach

You can start with the onions and chop everything else as you go but make sure nothing burns. Saute onion in olive oil in  large soup pot.  Chop and add celery, garlic and carrots.  Add spices and tomato. Add zucchini. and broth. Add 2 cups beans. Mash the third cup before adding to make broth thicker and tastier. Add spinach last.  Simmer 15 min or until veggies are tender.
