Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook 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, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth.
Fold in the cooked egg noodles, canned tuna (drained and flaked), frozen peas, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
In a small bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave. Mix the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs over the casserole for a crispy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
