Smoked Gouda Mac and Cheese

Smoked Gouda Mac and Cheese

This is a marvelously smooth mac and cheese with a bit of a bite. My family loves this. I got the idea from a recipe made on a popular cooking show, and adapted it to my own recipe and tastes. Delicious contrast if served with a 'sweet' main dish.

Step 2
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10 inch casserole dish.
Step 3
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook until a roux forms. Stir in the milk, salt and pepper; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is smooth and thick and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
Step 4
Combine cooked pasta and cheese sauce; transfer to prepared dish.
Step 5
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until heated through.
