Shepherd's Pie

If you have never eaten Shepherd's Pie, don't let the name throw you. It's actually really good and really cheap. It also makes enough for you to carry over to lunch if you only feed two people. Makes 4 servings.

1 lb ground turkey
Veggies, chopped - I used squash, zucchinni and bell pepper. The original recipe calls for carrots and celery.
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can diced tomatoes
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp oregano
2 large potatoes, mashed

Preheat oven to 400.

1. Cook the onions, garlic and veggies using olive oil cooking spray until tender - set aside
2. Brown the turkey. Drain and rinse. Add tomatoes, oregano, and thyme.
3. Meanwhile, boil potatoes until tender. Mash them with skim milk and a little bit of Smart Balance butter.
4. Mix Turkey and vegetables together. Pour the mixture into a 9x5 casserole dish.
5. Spread the mashed potatoes over the top of the turkey mixture.
6. Bake at 400 until potatoes are slightly brown, about 15 minutes.

I decided that since some fresh vegetables are really inexpensive, like squash, zucchini, onions, and broccoli, it may be cheaper for me to chop and freeze my own vegetables. I'll let you know how it goes :)
