Mom's tuna Noodle Cassarole

I must have had this for dinner 3 nights a week growing up. It is fast, a full meal, and makes great leftovers. I have kept the recipe as I originally got it, but when I make it I often add various other veggies to it I have listed as optional. I also leave out the tomatoes. I hate tomatoes.

Can be made ahead but does not freeze well.
