2 tablespoons olive oil
1 package (8 oz) portabella mushrooms, halved, sliced
1 bulb fennel, trimmed, cut into 1-inch slices
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook mushrooms, fennel and garlic in oil 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fennel is crisp-tender. Stir in pasta sauce, beans and basil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly heated.
