Cheesy Ham Pasta Bake

Long-familiar pasta in a new look — it’s very tasty! The dish turns out aromatic, tender and satisfying. I tried it before and after baking, it turns out equally delicious, so if you don’t have time, you can just mix everything and serve, the main thing is to mix it with hot pasta so that the whole mixture warms up and the cheese begins to melt. After baking, thanks to the cheese and bread crumbs, you get a crispy crust, but just don’t get too carried away during baking, don’t wait for a strong blush, otherwise you can dry out the casserole! Help yourself!
