Serves 5

Ingredients

1 lb 93% lean ground turkey
1.25 cup chicken broth - low sodium
5 clove garlic
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
0.63 lb Mixed vegetables (frozen)
0.5 lb mushrooms
1 tbsp olive oil
1 unit onions
1 tsp rosemary
0.5 cup Skim Milk
1.5 lb sweet potatoes
0.5 cup vegetable broth
1 tsp worchestershire sauce

Directions

THIS DISH INVOLVES SWEET POTATOES (WHICH NEED TO BE PEELED AND HAVE A HIGH HEAT CAPACITY), SO IT TAKES PRETTY LONG TO COOK. BUDGET AT LEAST AN HOUR FOR THE OVEN.

Timings given are for 6 servings. Scale them up by floor(the number of people you're cooking for/6).

1. Preheat oven to 400F.

2. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into manageable chunks. Boil with 3/5 of the garlic until potatoes are soft. (see step 7 when complete)

3. . Meanwhile, cook turkey in a pan with salt and pepper to taste. Set cooked turkey aside.

4. Using a different pan, heat olive oil and cook chopped onions for 1 minute. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms; saute for 3-4 minutes. Add frozen vegetables, 4/5 of the chicken broth or vegetable broth (for vegetarians), Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to taste, paprika to taste, and rosemary; simmer for 5 - 10 minutes.

5. Set aside a portion of the sauteed veggies for vegetarians. Season these veggies extra to make up for the lack of meat (thyme, sage, and pepper). Feel free to season the meat a little extra if you feel it needs some seasoning. Your call.

6. Add cooked turkey to the rest of the veggies, simmer for 5 minutes.

7. Hopefully the potatoes are cooked by now. Drain and mash the potatoes, garlic cloves, milk, 1/5 of the chicken broth, Greek yogurt, and salt and pepper to taste.

8. Put the meat mixture in a pan, then top with mashed sweet potatoes. Make sure to make a vegetarian portion with the veggies you set aside.

9. Bake for 1/2 hour or until potatoes turn golden (whatever that means)
