This Cheesy Tuna Casserole is not just a meal; it's a warm hug for your soul!

1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

2

Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

3

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, drained tuna, sautéed onion and garlic, peas, milk, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, black pepper, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

5

Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and then the bread crumbs evenly over the top.

6

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.

7

Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

• Add some cooked diced bell peppers for a pop of color and flavor.
• Mix in some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or dill for a fresh twist.
• Use different types of cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack for added flavor.

• Ensure the pasta is not overcooked before mixing as it will cook more in the oven.
• For extra creaminess, consider adding a little cream cheese to the mixture.
• You can substitute frozen vegetables for fresh ones to save on prep time.
