SIMPLE TURKEY SHEPHERD'S PIE



Simple Turkey Shepherd's Pie image

This ground turkey shepherd's pie is an easy recipe with basic main ingredients - turkey, corn, and potatoes. Although simple to prepare, it is large on taste and has always been a favorite. It also freezes and re-heats well, so I often make a few batches at a time. The potatoes can be cooked in chicken or beef broth for added flavor. Enjoy!

GROUND TURKEY SHEPHERD'S PIE



Ground Turkey Shepherd's Pie image

Lean ground turkey has significantly less saturated fat than beef. It tastes rich and earthy when simmered with chipotle chili powder. Carrots and peas brighten the filling, while yogurt, stirred into the mashed potatoes and parsnips, adds calcium.

EASY TURKEY SHEPHERD'S PIE



Easy Turkey Shepherd's Pie image

Here is a very easy Shepherd's Pie, using mostly pre-made ingredients and ground turkey instead of ground beef. I use onion powder and garlic powder because I don't like the texture of cooked onions and garlic in my food. However, I'm sure the real thing would be good for those who prefer. I use the pre-made mashed potatoes that are usually found near the packaged meats for added ease.
