Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Drizzle olive oil in a large skillet and sauté onions on medium-low heat until translucent. Add turkey, carrots, and peas and cook until meat is no longer pink, approximately 6-10 minutes. Season with black pepper and desired spices.
  3. Trim and chop cauliflower into florets. Steam for 6 minutes in a covered saucepan with 2 cups boiling water. Transfer to a food processor with olive oil, garlic, Greek yogurt, and water or milk, and blend until creamy.
  4. Transfer ground turkey mixture to a 9” glass pie dish and cover with mashed cauliflower. Bake for 25 minutes at 400 degrees, and broil on low for 5 minutes (or until topping is lightly browned). Garnish with chives and serve.
  5. Handy Hint: Before baking, create a wavy design with a fork for authentic-looking cottage pie.
