Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 lb medium pasta shells (about 5 cups)
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
2 cups coarsely grated cheddar or gruyere (8 oz)
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
kosher salt and black pepper
1 16- oz bag frozen broccoli florets, thawed

Directions:

Heat broiler. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and stir until melted. Stir in the nutmeg, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper. Add the pasta and broccoli and toss to combine. Transfer to a broilerproof 8-inch square or another 1 1/2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1⁄2 cup of cheese. Broil until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
