Ingredients

    1 1/2 pounds potatoes
    2 Tablespoons butter
    splash of milk

    3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    1 onion
    1/2 cup chopped celery hearts (I like to throw in some chopped celery leaves)
    1 1/4 pounds ground turkey
    1 cup vegetable stock
    1 10oz. bag of frozen peas and carrots
    1 Tablespoon flour
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 teaspoon rosemary
    1 teaspoon paprika
    1 pinch of nutmeg
    1/2 cap full of Kitchen Bouquet
    salt and pepper to taste


Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Dice and boil the potatoes until tender (10 or 15 minutes). Mash with a fork, mixing in milk, butter, salt, and pepper. I keep on the skins (it’s better for you and looks better, I think) but you don’t have to.

While the potatoes are cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and celery and cook until the onions are translucent (5 minutes or so). Add the turkey and cook through, stirring regularly and breaking up the meat (another 10 minutes or so). Add peas and carrots, vegetable stock and sprinkle with flour (this thickens everything up) and cook stir for a few more minutes. Add spices and let simmer and thicken for about five minutes.

Transfer to a medium-sized casserole or baking dish. Cover with the potatoes, making irregular peaks with a fork. Dab with a little of butter and garnish with chives or fresh parsley. Bake for about 30 minutes, uncovered.
