You don't have to give up your high-fat favorites. Our lightened up Shepherd's Pie has it all: mashed potatoes, ground meat and lots of cheese.

Ingredients

8 medium uncooked red potato(es), peeled and quartered   
5 tsp olive oil, divided   
1/4 cup(s) fat-free evaporated milk   
3/4 cup(s) shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese, divided   
1/8 tsp table salt, or more to taste   
1/8 tsp black pepper, or more to taste   
1/2 cup(s) onion(s), chopped   
12 oz uncooked ground turkey breast   
2 cup(s) zucchini, or yellow summer squash, sliced   
14 1/2 oz canned tomatoes, chunky pasta-style, undrained   
6 oz canned tomato paste   
1/4 tsp black pepper   
1 spray(s) cooking spray   

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.

  • Place potatoes in a large pot and fill with just enough water to cover potatoes. Boil until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and place back in pot. Add 2 teaspoons of oil, milk, 1/4 cup of cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Mash until fluffy; set aside.

  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining tablespoon of oil and heat until it shimmers. Add onion and turkey, and cook until meat is no longer pink, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes; drain off any fat. Stir in zucchini or squash, undrained tomatoes, tomato paste and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper; bring to a boil.

  • Coat an 8 1/2- X 11-inch baking dish with cooking spray; fill with turkey mixture. Spread potato mixture on top of turkey mixture, covering it completely. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and bake until potato mixture is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing into 8 pieces.
