Recipe by Becky Wergers This was a favorite in my home growing up and now it's a favorite of my family as well. I double the recipe these days for my husband and three children. For a change of pace I add canned chopped green chilies and 1/8 teaspoon cay

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained

  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil; place noodles in water and bring to boil again. Cook until al dente; drain well.
  3. While noodles are cooking saute in a medium size saucepan vegetable oil, onion, green and red bell peppers. Saute until tender.
  4. Pour soup, tuna, milk, salt and black pepper into the saucepan. Mix well over medium-low heat.
  5. Fold the noodles into the saucepan.
