Prepare the vegetables: core and thinly slice the cabbage, peel and dice the carrots, slice the celery, finely chop the onion, and mince the garlic.
In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Add the carrots and celery to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the cabbage, diced tomatoes (with their juices), vegetable broth, bay leaf, and dried thyme. Mix well.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer the soup for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm.
