2 celery stalks, chopped
1 14.5-oz. can Italian roma tomatoes, cut up and juice reserved

Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

While noodles are cooking, heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté onion, stirring until pale golden, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, carrots and celery and sauté until tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and reserved juice, broth, water, oregano, basil, bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, about 30 minutes. Stir in the beans and cooked noodles.

Remove bay leaf. Sprinkle some of the Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley on each serving of soup, or stir into saucepan prior to serving. Serve immediately.
