  2. 2
    Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with butter or cooking spray.
  3. 3
    Cook egg noodles in boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  4. 4
    Thaw the frozen mixed vegetables if they are frozen solid, or rinse briefly in warm water to speed up thawing.
  5. 5
    In a medium saucepan, melt butter or margarine over medium heat.
  6. 6
    Whisk in flour, salt, and pepper, cooking for about 1 minute to form a roux.
  7. 7
    Gradually whisk in the half-and-half, ensuring no lumps form.
  8. 8
    Simmer the sauce, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  9. 9
    Stir in the Dijon mustard until fully incorporated. Remove from heat.
  10. 10
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked noodles, thickened sauce, thawed vegetables, and flaked salmon.
  11. 11
    Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
  12. 12
    Sprinkle the shredded Havarti cheese evenly over the top.
  13. 13
    Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly around the edges and the cheese is melted.
  14. 14
    Let stand for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set slightly.
