1/4 c smoked black pepper white cheddar
6 oz ham steak, diced

in a large skillet heat olive oil over medium heat. add onion and garlic. saute until golden brown. add broccoli and ham, continuing to saute until broccoli is tender.
prepare mac'n cheese according to directions, but brown the butter before mixing it in (you may need to add a little extra milk). add the onion, garlic, broccoli and ham, then add the white cheddar, stirring until completely melted.
