Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
Step 2
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 drained canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, frozen peas, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Add the cooked egg noodles to the tuna mixture and gently toss until the noodles are evenly coated.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter until the crumbs are well-coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Step 7
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the breadcrumbs for an extra cheesy topping.
Step 8
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
