Step 1
Start by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil.

Stir the mixture gently until everything is well blended and warmed through, which should take about five minutes.

Now, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and pour in the warm tuna mixture.
Step 8
Add the cooked noodles and give everything a good mix until it’s all combined beautifully.
Step 9
For that extra touch of comfort, layer slices of processed cheese food on top of the noodle mixture, then sprinkle crushed potato chips over everything for a delightful crunch.

Pop the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the top is a lovely golden brown.
