Steps:
- Make pasta: Put a big pot of salted water onto boil on high heat for the pasta (4 quarts, 2 tablespoons salt). While the pasta water is heating, prep the other ingredients. Once the water has reached a rolling boil, add the pasta and stir so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Let the water return to a rolling boil and cook, uncovered, for 9 to 10 minutes, until the pasta is "al dente", cooked through but still slightly firm to the bite.
- Make roux: Melt the butter in a large (3 to 4 quart), thick-bottomed pot on medium heat. Add the minced garlic. Let the garlic sizzle for a few seconds. Add the flour and whisk so that any lumps are dissolved. Let the roux (flour and butter) bubble and cook for a minute or two.
- Make the sauce: Slowly add the milk and cream, a quarter cup at a time, whisking until incorporated after each addition. Increase the heat to medium high. Add 1⁄4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg and 1⁄2 teaspoon of ground black pepper. (You may want to increase these later to taste.) Add 1⁄2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Add half of the shredded Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, whisking until melted and incorporated into the sauce. Add 3/4 teaspoon of salt (again, you may want to increase this to taste). Stir in 1 cup of water (can use pasta cooking water if you want).
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Combine pasta with sauce, ham, parsley, onion greens: Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the sauce. Add the ham. Add the chopped parsley and onion greens or chives. Gently stir to combine. Taste, and add more nutmeg, salt, pepper, or Italian seasoning to taste.

Steps:
- Grate onion, drain juice, set aside. Cube most of Velveeta, shred remaining 2 oz. Put a pot of water on to boil. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in small dish (for breadcrumbs), and melt 6 tablespoons butter in another large saucepan.
- When butter in large saucepan is melted, sauté onion until golden. Add breadcrumbs to the 4 tablespoons of butter, and stir well, on medium heat, until golden brown (will take a while, keep stirring). When onion is golden, add flour, stir well and cook (while stirring) about 2 minutes. Add dry mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Then add milk gradually, while stirring.
- Cook on medium heat until sauce comes to a boil and thickens, stirring often. Add salt, then cubed Velveeta. Then add all shredded cheddar except 1 ½ cups. When cheese is melted taste to see if more salt is needed. Add ham and stir well. Cook macaroni about 6 or 7 minutes, should still be a little firm. Drain well and add to cheese sauce mixture. Spray a 9 X13 pan with nonstick cooking spray. Fill with cheese macaroni mixture, and spread evenly. Dot top with remaining Velveeta, then mix remaining cheddar with bread crumbs and spread evenly on top of macaroni mixture. Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly 20 to 30 minutes.
