Cheese and broccoli are a perfect pair and they found their way into this side dish I made a few days ago, which beats any cheesy boxed pasta dish I've ever had. I used imported California Colby Jack Cheese and Parmesan Cheese blend to make it super tasty and creamy.

Ingredients:

200 g bowtie pasta
100 g colby jack cheese, shredded
50 g parmesan cheese, shredded
3 T flour
3 T butter
1-2 to 1 cup almond milk
3 cups chopped and steamed broccoli

Start by boiling water, adding a little salt once it comes to a boil.
Once boiling add the pasta
In a small saucepan, melt the butter.
Once melted, add the flour and stir, allowing it to cook a little like that. This is making a roux which will thicken the sauce.
Add the milk whisking the whole time until smooth, then the cheese.
Whisk the cheese as it melts in until it's smooth, then remove from heat. Season with salt, garlic powder and pepper to taste.
When the pasta is done, strain it and rinse it. Return to the pan and add broccoli.
Add the cheese sauce and mix until covered, serve immediately. Leftovers reheat well.
