Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

½ head cauliflower florets
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ yellow onion, chopped
2 carrots, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ lb lean ground turkey
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon dried rosemary, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon dried thyme, finely chopped
1 tablespoon flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup frozen peas
½ cup frozen corn

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
Steam the cauliflower for 8 minutes, or until softened. Let cool and drain.
With a potato masher or hand blender, mash the cauliflower, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
In a cast-iron pan, heat a little olive oil and sauté the onions and carrots until they begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Add the ground turkey, salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary and cook until turkey is browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
Add flour and stir to combine.
Add the tomato paste and broth while whisking.
Add the peas and corn and cook until hot, about 5 minutes.
In a lined 12-cup muffin tray, evenly portion out the turkey mixture, followed by the mashed cauliflower.
Sprinkle with cheese, as desired.
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and has started to brown.
Enjoy!
