Step-by-Step Instructions for Cuban Casserole

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for the baking step of the Cuban Casserole.
In a large oven-safe skillet, combine the whipping cream, softened cream cheese, and yellow mustard over medium heat. Stir until a smooth sauce is formed.
Once the sauce is ready, stir in the pulled pork, sliced ham, and half of the shredded Swiss cheese, mixing well.
Spread the mixture evenly in the skillet, top with remaining Swiss cheese and sprinkle on the remaining dill pickles.
Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
