This rich and chewy macaroni and cheese casserole is bursting with the flavors of three different cheeses: Parmesan, fontina, and mozzarella. It's quick and easy to make, yet looks festive, especially with the addition of diced ham. Boiled egg noodles are topped with a creamy sauce with grated cheese and aromatic Italian parsley, then topped with more grated cheese and baked until golden brown and tender. This casserole is perfect for a family holiday or a picnic.
