Cajun Mac n'Cheese

Doesn't that look so good! I have always been a fan of the Blue Kraft Macaroni and Cheese... but i guess its about time that i came up with something of my own! This is all me and my hubby; and we loved it!

Ingredients:
- 1 pint half and half
- 2 tbls butter
- 1 1/2 tbls flour
- 1 tbls "King of the Cajun" Cajun Seasoning
- 1 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 3-4 oz of cream cheese (a little less than 1/2 of the package)
- 1/2 of a smoked sausage, chopped into bite size pieces
- 12 oz macaroni

In a pot boil water and cook macaroni according to package and drain. Also in a small pan cook smoke sausage until browned.

Meanwhile in small saucepan melt butter. When butter is melted add flour and cook for 3-5 mins. Add half and half and cajun seasoning and simmer for about 5-7 mins or until thickened. Add sauce to drained macaroni in large pan and add cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and smoked sausage. Stir until all cheese is melted. If desired add more Cajun seasoning.

If you want it creamier, add some more half and half. More cheddar taste, add more cheddar cheese. Tweak it until its perfect for you!
