Turkey Shepherds Pie
This Turkey Shepherd's Pie uses leftover shredded turkey combined with sautéed onion, garlic, and mixed vegetables, bound with gravy and seasoned simply. Topped with warmed mashed potatoes and grated Parmesan, the casserole is baked until the top turns golden and bubbly. The dish transforms leftovers into a comforting casserole with a creamy, slightly crusted potato layer over moist turkey filling with vegetables.

Notes
- Warm mashed potatoes before spreading to make them easier to layer evenly.
- Adding cheddar cheese with the Parmesan on top enhances the cheesy flavor if desired.
- Leftover ground beef or shredded chicken can replace turkey for variation.
