I love the original shepherd's pie and this is a healthy alternative to lower your carb intake. This is a great comfort food meal any time of year! It is amazing how well mashed cauliflower substitutes for mashed potatoes. Try it. Your family will love it!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower; cover and steam until tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Blend cauliflower, garlic, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, salt, and pepper in a blender until smooth.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground turkey in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Stir water, macaroni, peas, and soup mix into turkey; simmer until pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Pour pasta mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread cauliflower mixture over pasta mixture. Sprinkle paprika over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up making a simpler version with just ground beef, mashed potatoes, and gravy. It was still good, but I think I'll stick to my simpler recipe in the future.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I ended up using a pre-made mashed cauliflower and it still turned out pretty good. I would recommend this recipe if you have the time to make it from scratch.
