Cook penne in boiling water until it just starts to get tender (about halfway) and drain. (The pasta will continue to cook in the oven.)
In a Dutch oven, or the pan that you cooked the pasta in, melt butter. Add green onion, garlic, and red pepper. Cook for 2 minutes; add flour, stir well and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Add milk, half-and-half, and half of the shredded cheese. Cook, stirring constantly over medium high heat, until sauce becomes thick and bubbly.
Remove from heat, stir in sour cream until well combined. Add ham and pasta, stirring until pasta is well coated with sauce. Pour into an oven safe baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until cheese starts to brown. Serve with warm crusty bread.
