Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the onion, celery, carrots, garlic, sage, and 1/4 t. salt. Cook for about 10 minutes until onions are translucent and carrots are tender.
Increase heat to medium; add the stock/broth. Cover; bring to a simmer; stir in pasta; cover; cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes or until pasta is tender, depending on the type of pasta used.
Stir in the cannellini beans, crushed tomatoes and parsley; cook for a few more minutes, just until beans are warmed through. Taste, add more salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve garnished with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
