Easy Ham Noodle Casserole

When you bake a ham, save that ham bone! I have a really delicious One Pot, Ham Potato and Bean Soup to make with it. If you don’t have time to make the soup now, freeze the ham bone to make the soup later.

I pondered what to make for dinner last night knowing I had leftover ham from a couple nights prior. I brought out some creamed corn from my pantry, celery, onion, cheese, butter and some seasonings and I started boiling egg noodles.

I’m glad I did because this recipe turned out to be delicious and it was very easy to make! The sweetness of the corn coupled with the cheesy egg noodles topped with seasoned breadcrumbs is a simple yet, a delicious meal.

Casseroles, such as this Ham Noodle Casserole are great for busy moms because there just might be leftovers for the next night’s dinner.

I cringe a little when other moms tell me their husbands won’t eat leftovers. Why? I don’t understand it. If it tasted great the first day, in may taste even better the second day when its been marinating in its juices. Plus, the food you get in restaurants is not usually prepared the same day.

My husband will eat leftovers for three days straight! It’s one of his best qualities! I rarely have to toss anything. This helps our food budget tremendously.

How to Make this Leftover Ham Casserole

First, preheat the oven to 375F. Next, boil the egg noodles.
Then, then sauté the onion and celery in butter with some thyme for 2 minutes.
Next, drain the egg noodles and combine them with the onion and celery.
Then, put the mixture into an oil sprayed 13″x 9″x 3″ baking pan, and sprinkle Italian seasoned bread crumbs on top.
Next, place casserole dish in the oven for 30 minutes on 375 F.

It’a always great to have nice sharp knives and a few good cutting boards. I like to use one cutting board just to cut fruit, another for meat and yet another for vegetables. That way your fruit doesn’t pick up onion and garlic flavors from your vegetable cutting board, if it is porous.
