Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 10 oz canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 10.5 oz cream of mushroom soup
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 tbsp dried onion flakes
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup potato chips (crushed, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, mayonnaise, milk, dried onion flakes, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Step 3
Gently fold in the cooked egg noodles, drained tuna, frozen peas, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the noodle mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce is heated through and bubbly.
Step 5
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the crushed potato chips evenly over the top for added crunch and texture.
Step 6
Serve immediately while warm. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
