This African's Smoked Gouda Baked Mac N' Cheese | This African Cooks

Ingredients

• 3 cups milk (I used 2 %, but you can use regular)
• 1.5 cups 4 state cheddar (I used Sargento, found in most grocery stores, but plain yellow and white cheddar mixed will do.)
• 1 cup dutch smoked gouda (I love getting mine from Trader Joe's...it's my favorite)
• 1.5 cup shredded mozzarella (use a good one like sargento off the block)
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp flour
• 1 tsp salt (I use sea salt, but any is fine)
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (Regular paprika works but smoked is my favorite)
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella
• 1 cup shredded cheddar
• 1/2 tsp lemon pepper
• 16 oz pasta (Which ever one you like. I used Italian trottole.)
• salt (Optional)
