    | 1. Put on a large pot of salted water to boil; when boiling, cook penne till al dente stage and drain well. | 2. Meanwhile, wash and trim broccoli (or just use frozen), slice into bite size pieces and florets, and microwave until crisp-tender, about 3 or 4 minutes; drain well and set aside. | 3. Have cooked shrimp waiting in the fridge. | 4. In a large heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. | 5. Whisk in flour, then gradually whisk in milk and stock; keep whisking to ensure the mixture has no lumps. | 6. When sauce comes to a boil, stir in parmesan cheese; when thoroughly combined, stir in broccoli and shrimp. | 7. Let mixture come back to a bubbling simmer, then let simmer for 1 or 2 minutes-- just long enough for the shrimp to warm up. | 8. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste, and stir. | 9. Turn off heat, stir in well-drained pasta, and pour mixture into an attractive serving bowl; serve hot. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
