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!
