Whole-wheat spaghetti with shrimp and white beans is a quick, healthy, and, most importantly, delicious dinner that's perfect for midweek or special occasions. When draining the pasta, it's important to reserve some of the cooking water to add later if the dish turns out dry. The starchy pasta water will perfectly moisten the pasta and thin out the sauce.
