1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup frozen sweet corn, thawed
1 (10.5 ounce) can reduced-calorie undiluted mushroom

8 ounces drained canned chunk light tuna packed in water, flaked
1/2 cup skim milk
Few drops hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 slices reduced-calorie fresh whole-wheat bread, made into crumbs
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese
2 medium tomatoes, sliced

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray shallow 2-quart casserole with nonstick cooking spray.

In large pot of boiling water, cook noodles 8 minutes, until tender. Drain; keep warm.

Meanwhile, spray a large saucepan with nonstick cooking spray. Add onions and celery; cook, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes, until tender-crisp. Add bell peppers, mushrooms and corn. Continue cooking and stirring, 5 minutes longer, until tender. Stir in soup, tuna, milk, hot pepper sauce, parsley and pepper. Remove from heat; stir in noodles. Transfer to prepared casserole. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese; bake 15-20 minutes, until crumbs are golden brown and crisp. Top with fresh tomato slices. Serve hot.
