Ingredients

• 1 lb lean ground turkey
• 2 large sweet potatoes
• 1 medium white onion
• 2 medium carrot
• 2 celery ribs
• 1 medium parsnip
• 1 cup butternut squash
• 2 tbsp garlic-infused oil
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tsp dried rubbed sage
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 0.5 tsp coarsely ground pepper
• 1 cup water
• 1 tbsp arrowroot powder
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup rice milk
• 2 tbsp parsley

Instructions

1. 1Boil or steam sweet potatoes until very tender. Mash with unsalted butter, rice milk, and a pinch of sea salt until smooth.
2. 2In a large oven-safe skillet or pot, brown ground turkey in olive oil. Drain excess fat. Add garlic-infused oil, onion, carrots, celery, parsnip, and butternut squash; cook until vegetables soften. Stir in sage, thyme, sea salt, and pepper.
3. 3Sprinkle arrowroot powder over the turkey and vegetables, stir well. Gradually add water, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly.
4. 4Transfer the turkey filling to a 9x13 inch baking dish if not using an oven-safe skillet. Evenly spread the mashed sweet potato over the filling.
5. 5Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbly. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
