Seasoned meat and vegetables are nestled under creamy mashed potatoes and then baked to form a sensational, savory pie.

Ingredients

Uncooked potato(es)

2 large, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces

Fat free sour cream

¼ cup(s)

Reduced-calorie margarine

1 Tbsp

Table salt

⅛ tsp, or to taste

Olive oil

2 tsp

Uncooked onion(s)

1 cup(s), chopped, chopped

Uncooked carrot(s)

2 medium, diced

Uncooked celery

2 rib(s), medium, diced

Uncooked extra lean ground turkey breast

1 pound(s)

All-purpose flour

3 Tbsp

Rosemary

1 Tbsp, fresh, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)

Dried thyme

1 tsp

Table salt

½ tsp

Black pepper

¼ tsp

Canned chicken broth

2 cup(s), or beef broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and pour in enough water to cover potatoes. Set pan over high heat and bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer 10 minutes, until potatoes are fork-tender. Drain potatoes, transfer to a large bowl and add sour cream and margarine; mash until smooth, season to taste with salt and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrots and celery; cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add turkey and cook until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks, about 5 minutes. Add flour, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper; stir to coat. Add broth and bring to a simmer; simmer until mixture thickens, about 3 minutes.
  4. Transfer turkey mixture to a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate. Spread mashed potatoes over top and using the back of a spoon, make decorative swirls over the top. Bake until potatoes are golden, about 30 minutes. Slice into 6 pieces and serve.
