Ingredients:
Potatoes
1.5 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled, and diced
3 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup fat free chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste

Filling
1 pound lean ground turkey
1 teaspoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, diced
8 ounces mushrooms, diced
1- ounces frozen mixed vegetables
2 tablespoons gluten free flour mix
1 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Bring sweet potatoes and garlic cloves to a boil and cook until tender enough to mash.
2. Mash sweet potatoes and garlic together, adding the remainder of the ingredients for the potatoes (except the paprika) and set aside.
3. Brown the ground turkey, drain, and set aside.
4. In the same skillet that you browned the turkey, add the olive oil and cook the onions until translucent.  Add the remaining ingredients and cook until well combined, adding the ground turkey back in as well.
5. In a large oven safe dish, spread the filling on the bottom and then top with the potatoes.  Sprinkle the paprika on top of the potatoes.
6. Place in a 350 degree oven until the potatoes begin to brown, about 20 minutes.
