Ingredients

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 large potato(es), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1 Tbsp reduced-calorie margarine
  • 1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
  • 1 cup onion(s), chopped
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 medium carrot(s), diced
  • 2 medium stalk celery, diced
  • 1 pound uncooked ground turkey breast
  • 1/2 tsp table salt
  • 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp rosemary, fresh, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 2 cup canned chicken broth, or beef broth



Directions

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

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.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrots and celery; cook 3 minutes, until soft. Add turkey and cook 5 minutes, until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Add flour, rosemary, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper; stir to coat. Add broth and bring to a simmer; simmer 3 minutes, until mixture thickens.

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 30 minutes, until potatoes are golden. Slice into 6 pieces and serve.
