I always cook whole wheat pastas al dente because once they get past al dente they tend to get mushy or may even begin to fall apart. Pulse garlic in a food processor until finely minced. Add tomatoes, olive oil, and salt and pepper and blend together. Once everything is well combined pour over cooked pasta. Stir in White beans and basil. Top with some Parmesan cheese and enjoy!!
