I liked this, as did my family, but it wasn't as good as I had hoped. I don't know if it would have helped if I had used buttermilk (subbed milk with lemon juice). It didn't hold together very well so we ended up mixing it all up, which reminded me of a curry casserole instead of seeming like an exotic shepherd's pie.

    I made this last night for my in-laws, DH, and son. Everyone enjoyed it. Thank you for the yummy recipe. I did make several changes/additions. To the ground turkey, I added diced carrots and celery in addition to peas, onions, and garlic. I also added some chicken bouillion and worchestire sauce to add to the flavor. In the sweet potato mixture I substituted maple syrup for the honey, but I'm sure it would taste just as good with honey. It turned out very good. Thanks again!
