Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil. When hot, stir in the onion, garlic, celery, carrots, zucchini, squash, fennel and cabbage. Season with salt. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the beans, tomatoes, herbs and 2 cups water. Season with more salt, then gently fold together until combined. Press on the solids so they are submerged in the water. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 1 hour. Stir gently only once or twice. Fold in the spinach and simmer 30 minutes more. Remove the bay leaf. Stir in more salt and red-pepper flakes to taste. Ladle the soup into individual serving bowls. Drizzle each with olive oil and sprinkle with grated Parmesan. If you choose, serve with bread.
