- 3 1/2 cups egg noodles (cooked al dente)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 yellow onion (small to medium size)
- 3 stalks celery (diced)

Crumb Topping
- 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs

First, preheat the oven to 400F. Combine your ingredients for the crispy topping in a small bowl and then set aside.
Next, in a skillet over medium heat, cook the onion and celery in the butter for about 5 minutes until tender and set aside.
Next, in a large bowl, combine the egg noodles, onion/celery mixture, peas, mushroom soup, milk, cheese, tuna, and parsley. Mix until thoroughly combined and then add the mixture into a casserole dish. Spread the topping over the entire dish. Bake for about 20-22 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling. Serve immediately.
