In a large pot, begin boiling enough water to cover the pasta.
In a small pan, add the drained kidney beans and combine them with the garlic, bay leaf, and old bay. Set heat to low and cover with a lid. Allow it to simmer for about 10-12 minutes.
In another pot or using a colander over the pasta water, boil or steam the broccoli until tender but still bright green.

Set broccoli aside for later once cooked.
After the pasta has cooked, remove it from the stove and drain water. Return to stove on low heat.
Add vegan butter, nutritional yeast, non-dairy milk, and optional vegan cheese to the pasta. Stir well with a wooden spoon. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the bay leaf from the beans and combine the beans with the pasta.
Add the broccoli to the pasta.
Stir well, taste, and adjust seasoning as desired.
