    This is comfort food!

    List of Ingredients




    3 tbsp butter
    1/4 c flour
    1/2 tsp salt
    dash of pepper
    1/2 tsp dry mustard
    1 tbsp grated onion
    3 c milk
    2/3 c grated cheese
    about 2 c frozen cut broccoli (16 oz)
    2 c elbow macaroni (8 oz)
    2 c cooked ham, cubed
    grated parmesan cheese

    Recipe



    Cook broccoli according to package; drain.
    Cook macaroni according to package; drain.
    Preheat to 375.
    Melt butter in a large saucepan.
    Blend in flour, salt, pepper, dry mustard and onion.
    Gradually add milk, stirring constantly.
    cook until thickened.
    Remove from heat and add 2/3 c grated cheese; stir until melted.
    Add ham, macaroni, and broccoli; mix well.
    Pour into lightly greased casserole dish (2 quart size) and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
    Bake for 5 to 10 minutes or unitl bubbly and cheese has melted.

    If preparing in advance, bake at 350 for 30 to 40 minutes until heated through.

    Notes: I used real, unsalted butter, sharp cheddar cheese and smoked ham.
    I baked for 13 minutes.
    I might add paprika and use extra sharp cheddar next time for more kick.
