"My sister passed along the recipe for this convenient casserole," says Mary Killion of Hermiston, Oregon. "I appreciate being able to freeze one pan for a hectic day. The generous portions are bound to feed a hungry family or an extra mouth or two that show up at your table."

  • 2 packages (7 ounces each) thin spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 4 cups cubed fully cooked ham
