1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped bell peppers (green, red & yellow)
1 cup sliced mushrooms

Few drops hot pepper sauce
2 Tbsp minced parsley

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.
