Stovetop Sausage Mac And Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Melt the butter in the same pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, mustard powder and paprika; cook, whisking constantly, until smooth and slightly darker, about 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk and continue to cook, whisking occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and comes to a simmer, 7 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the cheddar, American cheese and cream cheese until melted and remove from heat.
• Add the pasta to the sauce; toss, adding some reserved cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Add hot water to stuffing mix; stir just until moistened. Set aside.
• Cook and stir sausage in large skillet on medium-high heat until evenly browned; drain. Add peppers and onions to skillet; cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Spoon sausage mixture into 13x9-inch baking dish. Cover with tomato sauce and prepared stuffing.
• Bake 25 min. or until heated through.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, wide pot or a very large, deep skillet over medium-high, then add the onion, kale and ½ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale has cooked down and the onion is smaller in size, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until the paste darkens slightly, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Add the sausage and cook, breaking the meat into small pieces, until it loses its pink color, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the red-pepper flakes, sprinkle with salt and give everything a good stir. Add the chicken broth and pasta and stir to combine. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, place a lid on the pan and cook until the pasta is soft but still has some bite to it, about 10 minutes. Be sure to check on the pasta and stir every now and again. (The sauce will have thickened from the starch in the pasta.)
• Add the cheese and hot sauce and mix well. Add salt and additional hot sauce to taste before serving.

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sausage; saute 4 minutes or until browned.
• Combine milk and flour in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add milk mixture to pan; bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Reduce heat to medium. Stir in cheeses, onion powder, and garlic salt; cook 3 minutes or until cheeses melt, stirring constantly.
• Stir in pasta. Garnish with parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
