Well they say necessity is the mother of invention. For me it was improvisation. I came home and began pulling things from the fridge and cupboards, to try to piece a meal together. I grabbed ground turkey, frozen normandy blend vegetables, a can of condensed cream of chicken soup, some rice, a can of veg all... Then i realized i wanted Shepard's Pie, but i had no potatoes. Or so I thought. The last trip to the market i picked up a bag of tatter tots. Presto we are having Shepard's pie.
I browned the 20 oz of ground turkey while I defrosted the Normandy blend veg in the microwave. I seasoned the meat, mixed in the soup, normandy blend and the veg all. I then arranged the tots in rows on top of the mixture. It got tossed into the oven following the directions of the tots. I then sprinkled with cheddar cheese and put it back in the oven to melt and brown the cheese. Not bad for a " what the hell's for dinner night".
As for the rice? It got put back till next time.
