In a small sauce pot over low heat, melt the butter. Add the flour & whisk quickly for 1 min. - Step 4
Slowly add the milk, mixing until the sauce is thick & bubbly, about 2 min. Season with salt, pepper & a pinch of nutmeg if you have. Remove the pot from the heat. - Step 5
In a baking dish, add the drained pasta, broccoli & cut ham. - Step 6
Cover with the cream sauce & toss it all together. - Step 7
Top with the shredded cheese. - Step 8
