  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is slightly translucent, about 2 minutes. Add broth and flour to the skillet and quickly stir for a minute with a whisk.
  • Add 1 cup soy milk and whisk, continuing to blend in the flour. Add remaining soy milk and continually stir until the mixture thickens and bubbles. Add tuna to the skillet, then stir in peas and broccoli; cook until heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Drain pasta and add to the skillet; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
