Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and add the pasta shells.
While the pasta cooks, place a pan on medium-low heat and add the ground sausage, breaking it up as it cooks.
After about four minutes, remove the sausage from the pan, trying to retain as much fat as possible.
Chop the broccoli into smaller pieces and add it to the pan, keeping the heat on low.
Season the broccoli with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a bit of butter.
In a small bowl, mix a teaspoon of cheese sauce with three tablespoons of pasta water, then pour it into the pan to deglaze, allowing the water to evaporate.
Return the sausage to the pan and stir everything together.
Add the cheese sauce to the mixture and stir until it becomes thick and sticky.
Incorporate three more tablespoons of pasta water to create a creamy cheese sauce.
Add the cooked pasta to the pan and mix well, sautéing for about two minutes.
Serve the dish and top with some reserved sausage.
