3. Add the vegan parmesan and stir around until it melts into the vegetables.
4. Add the fire roasted tomatoes and spices and saute for 1-2 minutes.
5. Add the beans, broth, spinach, and salt, then bring to a boil.
6. After bringing it to a boil, let it simmer for 20 minutes.
7. While the soup is simmering, cook the pasta according to the directions.
