Tuna Noodle Casserole

Submitted by BabyKEsq

"This is my Dad's recipe. I'm not sure where he got it, but it is by far the best tuna casserole I have ever tasted. I substitute thawed frozen peas for the green peppers because my husband prefers the peas. I also usually double the recipe because otherwise it's gone too fast. This is comfort food at its best."

This was a great recipe! My husband and I loved the green peppers in the casserole! The only variation I made was to add spices/seasonings, I added: garlic salt, pepper, onion powder, and a pinch of red cayenne pepper. <br/>Yum!! Thanks for posting this!
