Add one can of drained and rinsed cannellini beans, one can of diced tomatoes, one can of tomatoe paste, vegetable broth, cabbage, pasta, and the seasonings.
If necessary you may add water so that your soup is the right consistency for a thick soup.
Let your soup simmer on low for up to 20 minuetes depending on how well cooked you prefer your vegetables. I like my vegetables sort of crunchy so I bring my soup to a boil for just a few moments only. Then enjoy!
