Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, and prepared horseradish. Mix until smooth.
Stir in the diced ham, cooked egg noodles, shredded cheddar cheese (reserve 1/2 cup for topping), salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter. Add the reserved shredded cheddar cheese and mix well.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
