Ingredients:

4 med potatoes

1/4 C fat-free sour cream

1 Tbsp margarine

2 tsp olive oil

1/2 C onion

2 medium carrots- diced

2 medium celery, diced

1 lb uncooked ground turkey (can use ground beef, but calorie and fat goes up)

1 tsp dried rosemary

1 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

2 Cups chicken broth, or beef broth

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Boil potatoes until fork tender. Drain potatoes, transfer to large bowl and add sour cream and margarine. Mash until smooth. Season to taste with salt. Set aside.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion, carrots, celery. Cook until soft. Add turkey and cook until browned, breaking up meat as it cooks. Add flour, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir to coat. Add broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer until mixture thickens.

Transfer turkey mixture to a 9 inch deep pie plate, or casserole dish. Spread mashed potatoes over top. Use back of spoon to make decorative swirls. Bake until potatoes are golden, about 30 minutes. Enjoy!
