Cheesy Rustic Shepherd's Pie

Ground turkey replaces beef for lighter texture; parsnips mix with potatoes for earthiness. Sharp cheddar swapped in for washed rind cheese, melts well. Roasting garlic instead of boiling adds sweetness and depth. Corn tossed with fresh thyme and lemon juice brightens flavors. Layering key—don't overmix mashed base or get gummy. Broil end signals with bubbling cheese edges and golden crust. Visual cues trump strict timers here. Simplified pan use cuts cleanup, but split cooking if pan crowding happens. Aromas meld as meat crisps, cheese melts, and herbs wake up finishing corn toss atop. Comfort food with slight twist keeps it familiar but fresh.
