Ham and Cheese Casserole

This ham and cheese casserole is ooey, gooey, cheesy, and full of flavor! The baked mac and cheese with ham includes gruyere and sharp cheddar cheeses, smoky leftover ham, and a buttery garlic breadcrumb topping. It's a cozy, made-from-scratch, family-friendly dinner that's perfect alongside a simple green salad, tender green beans, or a basket of old-fashioned corn sticks!
