Used 2 cans of tuna, in water, instead. Sprayed pan with oil. Used a 16 oz. box of elbow noodles, a 12 oz. bag of frozen peas, and two 8 oz. bags of pepper jack cheese (one in the mixture, and one on top). Also added a can of carrots to the mix, and a few handfuls of French's fried onions to the top.
