Mom's Crockpot Tuna Casserole image

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 can(s) tuna packed in water, drained and flaked
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup (family size)
3/4 c milk
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 can(s) sweet corn, drained

1 green bell pepper, chopped
6-7 button mushrooms, sliced

salt and pepper to taste
16 oz garden rotini pasta, uncooked
2 1/2 c sharp cheddar cheese, grated
