Harvest Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie

Step 1

Start by heating some olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook it until it’s nicely browned, which should take about 5 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium, then toss in the onion, bell pepper, garlic, and all the spices—salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, ancho chile powder, and a pinch of cinnamon. Let everything cook together, stirring now and then, until the onions and peppers soften, around 5 minutes. Next, stir in the tomatoes and pumpkin until well combined. Spread a layer of mashed sweet potatoes over the top and sprinkle with smoked paprika. Pop the skillet into the oven and bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes, until everything is bubbly and the sweet potatoes have a nice golden crust.
