Kielbasa Sausage Used 2 Delicious Ways!

There is nothing better than easy, creamy, cheesy, smoked sausage recipes! Thankfully I found 2 new mouthwatering recipes that fit that description perfectly!
One is a kicked up Mac and Cheese recipe that includes kielbasa sausage! And the other recipe is a pizza made with alfredo sauce, 2 cheeses and kielbasa sausage! Both recipes were big winners with my family! These recipes and the sausage are from the Johnsonville® sausage company. I love their product and have used their sausages in many favorite family recipes!

What I love about their product is that the sausages are all natural, no fillers. And never overly salty or overly smoked. One of my favorite recipes from Johnsonville that I posted recently is called Sausage Chips. I have made that recipe many times and it is always gobbled up very quickly!

 

Now I'm sharing my 2 new favorite Johnsonville recipes that were just as delicious! Thanks again Johnsonville®  for continuing to bring your delicious product and your delicious recipes to my dinner table!

 I'm posting the recipes the way I made them.
