  1. Cook the Sausage:
    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sliced smoked sausage until browned. Remove and set aside.

  2. Sauté the Veggies:
    In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

  3. Add Potatoes:
    Stir in the diced potatoes. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. Make the Cheese Sauce:
    Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir to coat. Slowly pour in the milk while stirring constantly. Cook until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5–7 minutes.

  5. Add Cheese and Seasonings:
    Lower the heat and add shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until melted and smooth. Season with garlic powder, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper.
