Sicilian Pasta

In two quart saucepan heat water and cook penne pasta according to directions on package. Use as much as you like depending on your families taste for pasta. In another large skillet, cook Italian sausage adding onion and then garlic. Cook until onions are soft. Add can of tomatoes, and navy beans. Stir very well and let simmer while pasta is cooking. Drain pasta and then add to skillet with other ingredients until you have a somewhat thick consistency (do not want it to be runny or sticky). Stir well. Top with chopped basil, cover and let sit for just a few minutes in order for fresh basil to flavor. Use organic canned tomatoes and navy beans for a healthier alternative. Feeds a family of four, or double if you have more family members.
