Cheesy Baked Shells And Broccoli

• 3/4 pound medium pasta shells (about 5 cups)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 cups coarsely grated Cheddar or Gruyere (8 ounces)
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Kosher salt and black pepper
• 1 16-ounce bag frozen broccoli florets, thawed

1. Heat broiler. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
