What you need
8 ounces wagon wheels or other small pasta shapes 1 to 2 teaspoons vegetable oil 12 to 16 ounces sausage, sliced 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped 6 to 8 green onions, thinly sliced 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 4 teaspoons butter 1/4 cup flour 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 1/3 cups milk 3 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (divided)
How to make it
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 2-quart baking dish. Eat pasta according to package directions. Empty the cleaner and clean with hot water. Set aside. In a skillet over medium heat with just enough oil in the bottom of the lid, cook the capsicum with pepper until lightly browned and the peppers are softened. Add green onion and garlic and cook for about 2 minutes. Remove the sausage mixture to a plate or bowl. Place the butter in the same pan and heat over medium heat until melted and foamy. Add flour and mix until smooth. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes. Add Cajun seasoning and pepper. Gradually stir in milk and cook, stirring, until thickened and fluffy. Add 2 cups of the cheese and cook, stirring until melted. Spoon into prepared baking dish. Top with remaining cheddar cheese and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until flaky and cheese is melted.
