How to Make Broccoli Pasta
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, add pasta and broccoli florets. Cook until the pasta is al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Whisk in all-purpose flour, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
- Gradually pour in milk and heavy cream, whisking continuously. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring until melted and creamy.
- Toss the cooked pasta and broccoli into the cheese sauce until evenly coated. Serve warm.

Notes
For best results, cook the pasta al dente and avoid scorching the sauce during thickening. Can be garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and black pepper.
