Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) package uncooked rotini (corkscrew) pasta
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
3 carrots, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1 zucchini, cut into matchsticks
2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
2 (5 ounce) cans tuna, drained
4 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (6 ounce) can French-fried onions

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly fry the garlic, red and green pepper, carrots, and zucchini, stirring frequently, for 3 to 5 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soup and tuna. Stir in the vegetables and the cooked pasta. Mix to combine well. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cheese and fried onions over the top.
Bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes or until bubbly and slightly brown.
