- Assemble: Layer 1/3 of the cooked egg noodles and ham in the bottom of the casserole dish then sprinkle with 1/3 of the shredded cheese. Repeat 2 more times reserving the last 1/3 of shredded cheese.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the noodles and ham then sprinkle with the final layer of shredded cheese.
- In a small bowl, toss together the panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese with the melted butter. Sprinkle on top. Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden and set. Check at 25 minutes and lay a piece of aluminum foil on top to prevent over browning, if needed.
