Smoked Gouda Mac-n-Cheese

Last night for dinner, we had some awesome Mac-n-Cheese. It wasn't my own creation, but I thought I'd post pictures and tell you about it. My wife found the recipe on Pinterest. Here is the direct link for the recipe, http://kitchencookoff.msn.com/articles/en-us/detail/all/32541567.

It uses your traditional Beschamel Sauce, rich and creamy, and some tasty Kielbasa. I made a few changes myself. Here are the changes I made:

1. I used Elbow Macaroni instead of Shells.
2. I didn't use breadcrumbs per wife's request.
3. I used Smith's Kielbasa Links ( http://www.smithhotdogs.com/products/sausage_rings_and_more/), and cut them in small pieces.
4. I shredded extra Gouda and put extra on top.

All in all, it turned out pretty tasty. Here are some pictures.

I cut the rind off before I shredded it.
