Ingredients

• 2 cans Canned tuna (drained)
• 1 can Cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 2 cups Dried egg noodles
• 1 cups Frozen peas
• 1 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 0.5 cups Breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (optional, for breadcrumb topping)
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the noodles are cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, milk, frozen peas, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

Step 4

Fold the cooked and drained noodles into the tuna mixture until everything is evenly coated.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 6

If using breadcrumbs for a topping, melt the butter in a small bowl and mix it with the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the buttery breadcrumbs evenly over the mixture in the baking dish.

Step 7

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is bubbling.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
