Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
Drain the canned tuna and flake it with a fork. Add the tuna, frozen peas, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese to the soup mixture. Mix well.
Fold the cooked egg noodles into the mixture until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and stir until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the casserole, followed by the toasted breadcrumbs and French fried onions.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
