Recipe: Perfect Creamy Five Cheese Mac and Sausage Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Creamy Five Cheese Mac and Sausage. This baked mac and cheese is a family favorite recipe, loved by both children and adults. My version uses a combination of cheeses for a gloriously cheesy dish! The creamy base of this stove-top mac and cheese is the perfect complement to the smokey flavor of their polish smoked sausage.

Slow-cooked mushrooms and caramelized onions also.

I love the flavor that ground sausage adds to mac and cheese and the fact that it makes it feel more like a main dish.
