I got this recipe from a friend whose kids would eat only Macaroni and Cheese. She started sneaking in meats and veggies to the Macaroni, and her kids loved it!

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2-2 lbs of smoked kielbasa

1 onion, diced (more or less to desired taste)
1 green peppers or 1 red pepper, diced (my family prefers green pepper)
1/2 package cubed Velveeta cheese (or 1 cup of your cheese of choice....we prefer Velveeta because it's creamier)

salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cook the Pasta as directed on package.

  • In a large skillet, saute the diced onion and pepper in 2 Tbsp of butter or Olive Oil.
  • Slice the smoked sausage links into small pieces and add to the skillet with the onion and pepper.

  • Add the 1/2 cup milk or water to the mixture.

Tips
- Choose the right kielbasa. For this recipe, a smoked kielbasa is best. It will add a lot of flavor to the dish. - Don't overcook the noodles. They should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. - Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color and nutrition to the dish. - Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. A sharp cheddar cheese or a melty mozzarella cheese would both be good choices. - Serve the casserole hot out of the oven. It's best when it's bubbly and cheesy. ###
