Cheesy Smoked Sausage And Beans

---

Easy and sooooo good, even better the second day! This makes a huge amount which makes it the perfect meal for a larger family. I use kielbasa sausage for this but any dry smoked sausage will do fine. Serve this with crusty buns on the side, this make a delicious hearty meal for cooler days.
