This tuna and macaroni casserole is a flavorful combination, and it's a whole meal in one dish. Mixed vegetables and hard-cooked eggs add the nutritional content, and condensed soup makes the sauce easy.

1 cup pasta (elbow macaroni, cooked until just tender and drained)
1/2 cup onion (chopped)
1/4 cup bell pepper (green, chopped)

3 eggs (hard-boiled, coarsely chopped)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons butter (melted, for bread crumbs)

Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Grease a 1 and 1/2-quart casserole or baking dish.
