Ingredients:

6 oz. fresh broccoli
2 tbsp. water
1/8 tsp. salt
2 tsp. butter or margarine
1-1/2 tsp. unbleached flour
1 dash salt
1 dash white pepper
1/3 cup milk
1/4 to 1/2 cup shredded Swiss or cheddar cheese

Directions:

Wash broccoli; remove outer leaves and tough part of stalks. Cut broccoli stalks lengthwise into uniform spears, or slice thin crosswise. In a 1-quart casserole combine broccoli, water and 1/8 tsp. salt. Micro-cook, covered, on 100% power for 5 to 6 minutes or just till tender. Drain; let stand, covered, while preparing sauce.

For sauce, in a 1-cup measure microwave butter or margarine, uncovered, on 100% power for 30 to 45 seconds or till melted. Stir in flour, dash salt, and pepper; Stir in milk. Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 1 to 2 minutes or till thickened and bubbly, stirring every 30 seconds. Stir in shredded cheese till melted. Serve sauce atop broccoli.

Comments from dorel :

Very good, I didn't have Swiss cheese so I used cheddar. I think I used about 1/2 cup. The cheese sauce turned out good, it's so fast doing everything in the microwave.
