Baked Rotini With Ham Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender but not mushy, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• Thaw the broccoli in a microwave oven until you can break it apart into small pieces.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the diced ham in the hot oil until the edges start to brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the broccoli and cook and stir until any excess water has cooked away and the ham and broccoli are hot. Pour in the jar of Alfredo sauce and the milk; stir to blend, sprinkle with pepper, and add the cooked pasta. Stir everything together to coat the pasta with sauce and bring to a simmer.
• Spread the bubbling pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish, top with shredded Colby-Monterey jack cheese, and bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is hot and the cheese is melted and starting to brown, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp butter. Add bread crumbs; cook until browned. Remove from skillet; reserve. In same skillet over medium heat, melt remaining butter. Stir in flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add milk all at once. Cook and stir until mixture boils. Cook 2 minutes more. Stir in 1 1/2 cups cheese and ham. Add hot pasta to skillet; toss to coat. Top with remaining cheese and buttered crumbs.
