Thanksgiving Shepherds Pie

So at work last week we were talking about different dinner options. There are always the same easy things you make all the time and once in a while you just need something a little different. A co-worker suggested this dish which I call "Thanksgiving Shepherds Pie". Her family makes it after Thanksgiving with all the leftovers but I wanted to try it and didn't want to wait until Thanksgiving to do so. I aldo chose the easy way out and bought the mashed potatoes pre-made and added a little salt, pepper and garlic powder to them. Here are the other items you will need:

Ingredients
1lb of Turkey (boars head ovengold, cut as thick as they can)
6 large carrots (cut into sticks and cooked)
1 box cranberry stuffing (prepare following instructions on box)
Mashed potatoes (family sized stop and shop pre-made)
1 can cranberry sauce
Salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika to taste

Once all of the above is cooked and ready to go it is quite simple, just layer the items in the order that they are listed in, into a large round casserole. (I love using my temptations since they can go right into the oven, are beautiful to serve with and can be covered and stored all in the same dish, who doesn't love less cleaning?!?!?) Now I didn't add the cranberry sauce since Scott hates it but feel free to put that inbetween the stuffing and potatoes or save and serve on top once done. Once layers, as pictured below, sprinkle with salt pepper and paprika and bake at 350 for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the potatoes look lightly browned. Serve immediately and Enjoy!
