Tuna or Chicken Hotdish (Minnesota Hotdish or Casserole)

My mom used to make this meal growing up for our family of 9 using tuna fish. My husband hates fish, so we have transitioned to canned chicken instead and my whole family of picky eaters loves this meal. 'Hotdish' or 'Casserole' is a Minnesota Tradition.

1 Can of Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 Can of Cream of Chicken Soup
1 Cup Miracle Whip or Mayo (We used Miracle Whip)
1/2 Cup of Milk
1-2 Cans of Tuna Fish (My Mom used 2) or use 1 Can of Chicken
8oz Package of Egg Noodles Cooked
15oz Can of Asparagus (You can substitute Green Beans, that's what my family does)
1 Small Can of Mushrooms (Optional)
1/2 Lb of American Cheese Cubed (We use Velveta)
Optional Topping: Bread Crumbs or Crushed Potato Chips (We used crushed potato chips)

Warm the first 4 ingredients (Mushroom Soup, Chicken Soup, Miracle Whip/Mayo and Milk)
Stir in the rest of the ingredients.
Pour into a 9x13 Pan and back for 1 Hour at 325 Degrees
Add the Optional Topping 30 minutes into cooking (This is an estimated time. You will need to check to make sure the topping isn't burning.)
