Ham Tetrazzini - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 ounces vermicelli, broken into 2 inch pieces
    1 (4 ounce) can mushrooms
    1 small onion, finely chopped
    4 tablespoons margarine
    1/4 cup flour
    1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
    1 1/2 cups milk
    2 chicken bouillon cubes
    2 cups ham, cut into bite-sized pieces
    parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Cook vermicelli according to package directions; return to pan.
    Drain liquid from mushrooms and add enough water to make 1 cup; dissolve the bouillon cubes in this liquid.
    In a medium saucepan, saute the onion in the margarine until soft.
    Stir in flour and mustard; cook, stirring constantly, just until bubbly.
    Stir in the milk and the mushroom liquid mixture.
    Cook and stir until the sauce thickens and boils for 1 minute.
    Pour sauce over vermicelli, then stir in mushrooms and ham.
    Pour into a baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray.
    Sprinkle with Parmesan. (Amount to taste, but I think it tastes best with the top surface of the casserole pretty much covered.)
    Bake at 350\u00b0 about 1/2 hour, or until bubbly hot.
