Cheesy Potato Kielbasa Bake

With it being so CHILLY outside...I like to bake....it heats up my kitchen, and I love Comfort food  this time of year!  This is one of our favorite dinners! 

Cheesy Potato Kielbasa Bake
3-4 Cups of Potatoes (Cut into cubes and boil till soft...not  too soft)
1 package of Polska Kielbasa (or you could use hot dogs)
4 Tbsp. Butter
4 Tbsp. Flour
2 Cups of Milk
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1/2 pound Velveeta cheese, diced into cubes
1/2 tsp. Paprika
1/2 Cup Cheddar Cheese Shredded
Directions:
  1. Cut Kielbasa into thin slices. Cook in a frying pan with some olive oil until both sides are brown.
  2. Meanwhile, put cooked & diced potatoes in 2 quart casserole. Add sausage and stir it up.
  3. Mix all remaining ingredients (except for cheddar cheese & the paprika) in a saucepan over medium heat until warm, melted and smooth. (Use a whisk and stir constantly.).
  4. Pour cheese sauce over potatoes and meat. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, and then sprinkle paprika evenly over the top.
  5. Bake in preheated 350°F oven for 35-45 minutes (watch, until golden brown on top).
