Ingredients (serves 6):
- 1 (12 oz) package egg noodles
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 2 (5 oz) cans tuna, drained
- 1 cup frozen green peas
- ½ (4.5 oz) can sliced mushrooms
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 1 cup crushed potato chips
- Prep the noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles until tender but still firm (7–9 minutes). Drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 425°F. - Mix it all together
In a large bowl, combine noodles, both cans of soup, 1 cup of cheese, tuna, peas, mushrooms, and chopped onion. Stir until everything’s well coated. - Assemble the casserole
Spread the mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheddar on top, then add a layer of crushed potato chips. - Bake until bubbly
Bake uncovered for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the top is golden and crisp. - Serve & enjoy
Let it cool slightly, then dig in while it’s warm and cheesy.
Leftovers & Freezing Tips
- Storing: Place leftovers in a shallow, airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
- Freezing: Planning ahead? Assemble the casserole in a foil pan. Once cooled, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, then foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw in the fridge overnight and bake until hot.
