Take approximately 1 1/2 cups of the white kidney beans and mash them until smooth in a medium bowl.
In a 5-quart saucepan, cook the ham, celery, carrots, onion, zucchini, basil and pepper in hot oil until the vegetables are tender and begin to brown (about 15 minutes).
Stir in the stewed tomatoes, chicken broth, chopped spinach, mashed white beans and 2 cups of water, using a spoon to break up the tomatoes.
Over high heat, bring to boiling. Reduce the heat to low; cover and simmer for 15 minutes to blend the flavors.
Stir in the remaining beans; heat through.
