Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Steam the Broccoli

    In the same pot, steam the broccoli florets for about 3-4 minutes until just tender. Remove and set aside with the macaroni.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until the mixture thickens.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Seasonings

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Combine Ingredients

  1. 5

    Mix Macaroni, Broccoli, and Ham

    Stir the cooked macaroni, broccoli, and diced ham into the cheese sauce until everything is well combined.

  2. 6

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and spread it evenly.

  3. 7

    Bake (Optional)

    For a crispy top, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden on top. Alternatively, you can serve directly from the pot.
