For sauce, in a medium saucepan combine milk, cornstarch, and onion. Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more.

Spread 2 TBS of the sauce evenly on the bottom of a 10 x 6 x 2-inch baking dish. Stir ham and Italian seasoning into remaining sauce.

Arrange 3 lasagna noodles in the dish. Spread with one-third of the sauce.
