Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 2 6 oz cans canned tuna in water, drained
- 2 10.5 oz cans cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
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.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, cream of mushroom soup, milk, frozen peas, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Add the cooked, drained noodles to the bowl and gently stir until everything is evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased 9x13-inch casserole dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
In a small bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and enjoy your Tuna Noodle Casserole Delight!
