I make this all year with regular ground turkey meat and it is just as good. My husband requests this all the time.

I made this last night and it was wonderful. I added 2 TBsp of tomato paste and doubled the creole spice and it was perfect. I'd probably omit the cheese on top and just dollop with a little butter next time.

Looking for something different to make with the mounds of leftover turkey, I decided to try a Shepard's Pie. I found this one and loving Emeril's take on cooking and use of spices, I gave this one a go.
I made the pie thinking we'd have leftover's for lunches the next day as there were only the two of us and we ended up eating the whole thing.
I would highly recommend this to ANYONE looking for a tasty alternative to leftover turkey!

My kids love a big turkey meal outside of holidays, but rarely eat the leftover meat till now. My son had friends over and I assumed they'd eat the leftover chili, but instead, they ate nearly the entire shepard's pie. Seasonings werre spot on. Love the flexibility - looking forward to making with leftover beef or pork roast, and if I don't have the potatoes made, will try a ready-made pie crust on top (like Robin Miller does on her pot pie.

I've never been one for Thanksgiving leftovers, always felt they were too dry and too many as a kid. This, however, surprised me! It was liked by the whole family. I omitted the essence spice due to child preference but all those flavors made a delicious dish. This is a keeper.

I made this for dinner last night with leftovers from a baked chicken/mashed potatoes/corn dinner the night before. It was amazing... maybe even better than the original meal?! :o This is going into my go-to recipe book, as my 7-year old step-son asked me "if we can have this every night for dinner?"!

This is a great recipe. I've made it three times since Thanksgiving with lots of variations.
I've used leftover spiced butter (from baking my turkey to sautee the veggies. I've topped it with mashed sweet potatoes and also topped another version with left over stuffing and cheddar cheese. I've thrown in cooked chicken instead of turkey (next time I'm going to add a bit of chopped cooked bacon. I've also thrown in left-over green beans from Thanksgiving as well. Everybody who's eaten it has loved it. Definitely a keeper and one that let's you vary ingredients to your heart's content!

Very simple & easy recipe! Everyone in my house loved it. I will be making it again soon....and probably on a regular basis here on out :

I did make a couple of changes:
instead of peeling & chopping carrots I used 2 cups of frozen peas and carrots;
I also used "No-Salt" in place of the regular salt & I used the store brand tomato paste because it has alot less sodium;
and instead of mashing potatoes I used the new Ore-Ida steam in the bag Garlic Mashed Potatoes...I used a little less butter and a little extra cream then used the electric mixer to whip them up.

I would also suggest putting a peice of foil in the bottom of the oven for drips :

This outstanding recipe was even better than the Thanksgiving dinner.
Really simple to make and tastes terrific.
I didn't have mushrooms on hand so I substituted with 3/4 cup of leftover sausage stuffing. Highly reommended.
