In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, milk, and frozen peas. Mix until well combined.

Transfer the noodle mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.

In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the cheese layer.

Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
