This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our full disclosure policy.
This ham and noodle casserole is the kind of easy comfort food dinner that the kids actually ask for over and over! Creamy, cheesy, and packed with protein from the diced ham, it comes together fast even on the busiest weeknights. It’s a satisfying meal that keeps the whole family full without a lot of fuss or a lot of work. Whether you’re using up leftover holiday ham or grabbing a ham steak from the store, this casserole is one of those recipes you’ll keep coming back to.
Ham and noodle casseroles are a staple in our house because they check every box for weeknight dinners: quick prep, ingredients we already have, and a creamy sauce that even picky eaters go back for seconds on. Egg noodles cook fast and hold up great in a baked casserole, and diced ham is one of those proteins I always keep on hand. This is real food that fits into real life. Most importantly, the whole family will love!

How To Make Ham Noodle Cheese Casserole:
Boil a large pot of water and drop in your egg noodles, and cook according to the package directions. (I used dumpling egg noodles from No Yolk, but any variation will work.)
Strain your noodles in a strainer once they are cooked. I love my over-the-counter strainer; this makes straining noodles easy and makes it easier to put the strained food back in the pans.
If using frozen steamed vegetables, microwave until done; if cooking on the stove, drain the vegetables from the water. Be sure to consult the package instructions for proper cooking times and steps.
Mix your cream of chicken, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, and 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese in a large bowl.
Once mixed in the bowl, add the cooked vegetables, chunks of ham, and egg noodles to the sour cream mixture.
Grease a 3.5-quart baking pan or casserole dish, then pour the casserole ingredients into it. I love these Rachel Ray casserole dishes, the colors are amazing and they cook easily. See them -> here on Amazon.
Top the dish with the remaining 1 Cup of shredded cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees in the oven for 30 minutes.
Remove and serve!
You can top the ham casserole with crumbled Ritz. The kids loved the creamy cheese sauce of this delicious casserole. The sour cream sauce really tied together this cheesy casserole.
