Turkey shepherd’s pie is a delicious way to use up those Thanksgiving leftovers.

Loaded with tender turkey, vegetables and gravy topped off with creamy mashed potatoes. A comforting dinner that uses up all your leftovers.

Let’s face it after Thanksgiving nobody feels like cooking. This meal is so easy, you just basically pile all your leftovers into a dish and bake it. All the Thanksgiving flavors bite after bite.

Tips for making Turkey shepherd’s pie

You can substitute whatever veggies you have on hand, green beans are also a great choice.
This recipe serves 6 but can easily be cut in half.
I use a 12 inch cast iron skillet but this can also be baked in a 9×13 baking dish.
Be sure to warm your mashed potatoes up first for easy spreading.
You can sprinkle a little of your favorite cheese on top before baking.
Don’t have any leftover turkey? Then try my Brined Garlic Roasted Turkey Breasts.
Need more garlic mashed potatoes? Or need to make some extra turkey gravy?
Place your skillet or baking dish on a baking sheet to prevent any bubbling over the top and onto the oven.
