Equipment

  • large pot

Ingredients

  • 1 (12oz) package egg noodles (uncooked)
  • 1/2 TBS salt
  • 4 cups cooked & seasoned pulled pork (non-sauced)
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream (DIVIDED)
  • 1 1/2 cups diced ham (DIVIDED)
  • 2 cups shredded swiss cheese (DIVIDED)
  • 1 cup dill pickles, diced (DIVIDED)
  • 1/4 cup + 1TBS Dijon mustard (DIVIDED)
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 TBS mustard

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish and set aside.
  • Cook egg noodles per directions on package in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and leave in pot.
  • In a large deep skillet place cooked, seasoned pulled pork and start breaking it apart and heating it through. Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup shredded swiss cheese, 1/4 cup (or 4 TBS) Dijon mustard, 6 oz diced ham, 1/2 cup diced pickle, salt & pepper.
    NOTE: pulled pork can be found in grocer's deli section with prepared foods.
    NOTE: you can also make your own pulled pork for this recipe. I have a YouTube recipe at Catherine's Plates called Sweet & Spicy Pulled Pork (adjust seasonings to your taste).
  • Turn off burner and stir in cooked noodles to coat. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish evenly. Top with remaining cheese (1 cup), ham (6oz), and pickles (1/2 cup).
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until cheese has melted and golden brown.
  • In small bowl whisk together mayonnaise, 1 TBS Dijon, 1 TBS yellow mustard, and 2-4 TBS of heavy cream to form a drizzle consistency. Drizzle on top of cooked casserole. Enjoy.
