**If you think this will be too spicy cut back on the red pepper flake and it's great without the jalapeno too.

How to Make Spicy Tuna & Noodles
- Bring large pot of water to a boil and add no yolk egg noodles. Boil according to package directions until al dente. Approximately 10 minutes. Drain water from noodles and reserve.
- Spray 9x13 casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray and add drained noodles. Pour tuna mixture over noodles and stir until well combined. Top the casserole with shredded cheese.
- TOPPING:
Add olive oil or butter to clean skillet on medium heat. Add cubed bread to skillet and stir to cover bread with oil. Saute to brown for 5 minutes making sure not to scorch the bread crumbs. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt before removing from heat. Then top casserole with seasoned bread crumbs. - Bake uncovered in 350 degree oven for 35-45 minutes to heat through and crisp topping.
My family likes to add hot sauce to this when they dish up. And it goes great with any veggie. We prefer corn, cottage cheese, and a small side salad.
