Leftover Ham and Cheese Broccoli Casserole

Step 1

Boil the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x13 inch pan with a non-stick cooking spray. In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter.

Add in the cheddar and continue to whisk until melted.

In a large bowl combine the ham, broccoli, pasta, and cheese sauce. Spread into your 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a small bowl combine melted butter, bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese.
