    Turkey Sweet Potato Pie-

    Turkey Sweet Potato Pie

     

    Turkey sweet Potato Pie,  or Turkey Cauliflower Mash Pie for low carb option. I used to make a pie similar to this with Thanksgiving left overs, and  I was thinking, why not make a paleo, primal, low carb version of it with ground or chopped turkey. That way I could have it any time of the year. My family loved it as much as the original.

    I was going to name it "Thanksgiving pie", but thought that would not be descriptive enough. I also made some low carb version with cauliflower mash instead of sweet potatoes.

    The small amount of banana in the mashed sweet potato or cauliflower adds a creamy texture and sweetness, but will not make it taste like banana. You can leave it out if  you must.
