  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes.
  • While the noodles are cooking, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Sauté onion and bell peppers in the hot oil until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Pour condensed soup into the saucepan. Add tuna, milk, salt, and pepper; mix until well combined. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Drain egg noodles well. Fold noodles into the tuna mixture until well coated. Transfer to a 2-quart casserole and sprinkle bread crumbs over top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top is crisp and golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
