POTATO CASSEROLE WITH CHEESE

 POTATO CASSEROLE WITH CHEESE & SMOKED SAUSAGE 

INGREDIENTS:

3 cups Idaho potatoes, peeled, boiled and cubed when cool, approx. 1 pound

4 tablespoons of butter

4 tablespoons of flour

2 cups of milk

½ teaspoon of salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

½ lb Velveeta cheese, diced

½ cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated

1 lb skinless smoked sausage (Eckrich is my favorite brand)

⅛ tsp paprika

DIRECTIONS:


-Cut sausages in half, lengthwise, then cut into ½ inch half moons.


- Cook in a sauté pan for about 15 minutes, turning them frequently, until they are lightly golden. Meanwhile, place the cooked and diced potatoes in a 2-quart saucepan.


-Add the cooked meat and stir gently. Combine all remaining ingredients (except grated cheese and paprika) in a saucepan over medium heat until hot, melted and smooth.


-Use a whisk and stir constantly. Pour the fromage blanc sauce over the potatoes and the meat.


-Sprinkle grated sharp cheddar cheese on top, then sprinkle paprika evenly on top.


- Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 35-45 minutes, until golden on top. Note: you can replace the sausage with ham.



Enjoy !!!
