Ingredients

1 Cup Asparagus
1 Dash Salt
2 Cup Navy Beans
1 1/2 Cup Soymilk
1 Dash Pepper
3 Cloves, minced Garlic
16 Oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 Cup Butter

Directions

Cut asparagus into 1/2" pieces.

Crush garlic.

Rinse and drain beans.

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water, and bring to a boil over high heat.

Cook pasta in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, about 11 minutes.

Drain well.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.

Stir in the garlic, and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Add 2/3 cup of the beans and 1/2 cup of soy milk; mash with the back of a spoon or a potato masher to create a thick paste.

Stir in the remaining soy milk to create a thick sauce.

Mix in the remaining beans and asparagus; simmer until asparagus is tender.

Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Toss pasta with the sauce, and serve.
