Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions, typically 8-10 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.
While the noodles are cooking, drain the canned tuna and set it aside. Microwave the frozen peas for 1-2 minutes to thaw and soften slightly.
In a large, deep skillet or a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and cream cheese. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and warmed through, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and mix until melted and fully incorporated.
Fold the cooked noodles, tuna, and peas into the creamy mixture. Stir gently to coat everything evenly. Continue cooking over low heat for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm.
