Carol, this is a personal favorite of mine. I like to boil some macaroni or spiral noodles with the egg noodles to add texture and variety to the casserole.
TUNA CASSEROLE
1 ( 5 oz.) pkg. Egg Noodles
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can Cream of Mushroom Soup or Golden Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 (5 oz.) can Evaporated Milk
1/3 C. finely chopped Onion
1 (6 oz. or larger) can solid white Tuna in spring water, drained, and flaked
1 to 1-1/2 C. shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 (8.5 oz.) can English Peas or 1 cup frozen peas
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1 C. tiny Fish-Shaped Crackers or 1 C. crushed potato chips
Cook noodles according to package directions, drain.
Stir in soup, evaporated milk, chopped onion and tuna.
Stir in 1/2 of shredded cheddar cheese (retain 1/2 of the cheese for later).
Pour into a lightly 8 inch greased square baking dish.
Sprinkle top of casserole with crackers (or crushed potato chips).
Top with remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake covered (foil makes a good cover) at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove cover and bake an additional 10 minutes (allowing cheese to brown.)
