A comforting twist on a classic shepherd's pie made healthy with lean ground turkey and a silky, creamy cauliflower mash. This dish features savory ground turkey mixed with tender peas, carrots, and aromatic onions, all topped with a smooth cauliflower puree that delivers rich flavor without excess calories.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1/2 cup Peas and Carrots (Mixed)
1/4 medium Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1/4 cup Nonfat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil (for mash)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for cooking)
Salt, Pepper & Thyme to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until softened and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme.
Stir in the mixed peas and carrots and let cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender or use a hand masher. Add the nonfat milk and 1 teaspoon olive oil, then blend or mash until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spread the turkey and vegetable mixture evenly in a serving dish. Spoon the creamy cauliflower mash over the turkey mixture, gently spreading it to cover the top.
Optional: Place under a broiler for 2-3 minutes to lightly brown the mash for added texture, watching closely to avoid burning.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, nutrient-packed meal.
