Shepherd’s Pie

1 head organic cauliflower, washed and cut into florets
2 large sweet potatoes, washed, peeled, and chopped into 1” pieces
olive or coconut oil
1 lb organic ground turkey
1 large Spanish onion, chopped small
2-3 stalks celery, washed, ends trimmed and diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup frozen organic corn (or fresh removed from cob if in season)
1 cup frozen organic peas
2-3 large carrots, washed, peeled, and sliced into quarters lengthwise, then diced
sea salt
pepper
oregano
thyme

Combine the cauliflower florets and sweet potatoes in a bowl. Drizzle with oil and a dash of salt, stir to coat well, then transfer the mixture in a single layer to a baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F for ~45 min, or until both vegetables are tender. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

Meanwhile, brown the turkey in a frying pan, adding herbs such as oregano and thyme if desired. Transfer the meat to a bowl and sauté the onions, celery and garlic in the pan drippings until tender, adding a small amount of oil if necessary.

Transfer half of the vegetables to the meat and combine. Spread the meat into an oiled 13 x 9 baking dish.

To the remaining onions and celery, add the corn, carrots, and peas and a just enough chicken or vegetable broth to steam the vegetables. Cook covered over medium heat until the carrots are almost cooked through. Add salt and pepper to taste and layer the mixture on top of the meat.

While the vegetables are steaming, place the cauliflower and sweet potatoes into a food processor and process until smooth. Add a bit of broth or milk for a thinner consistency if necessary. Spread the potato/cauliflower mixture on the meat and vegetables.

Bake the pie in a 350 degree F oven until heated through, ~30-45 minutes. Serve with sautéed greens and/or a crisp green salad.
