Linguine with Ham and Swiss Cheese

8oz uncooked linguine, broken in half
2c. cubed fully cooked ham
1 can (10-3/4oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
2-1/2c. (10oz) shredded swiss cheese, divided
1c. (8oz) sour cream
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2c. finely chopped green pepper
2T. butter, melted

Cook linguine according to package directions; drain. In a large bowl, combine the ham, soup, 2c. cheese, sour cream, onion, green pepper, and butter. Add pasta; toss to coat.

Transfer to a greased 13x9 baking dish. Cover and bake at 350degrees for 35 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 15-20 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

*I baked this for the first 35 minutes and then for just about 5 minutes more until the cheese was melted. It tasted great and was hot.*
