- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup

- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- In a large bowl, combine the condensed cream of mushroom soup, drained tuna, thawed peas, milk, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain them well.
- Add the cooked egg noodles to the soup mixture. Stir in 1/2 cup of the cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of the Monterey Jack cheese.
- Pour the mixture into a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a small bowl, mix the bread crumbs with the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese.
- Sprinkle the bread crumb and cheese mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Pour the melted butter over the bread crumb topping.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
Notes
- For an even cheesier casserole, add another 1/4 cup of cheddar and 1/4 cup of Monterey Jack cheese to the noodle mixture.
- You can also add a layer of sliced cheese on top of the noodle mixture before adding the bread crumb topping.
- Feel free to add other seasonings like garlic powder or onion powder to the soup mixture for extra flavor.
