Turkey (or chicken) Shepherd's Pie for Slow Cooker

This is a wonderful comfort one pot dish for Sunday Supper and can easily be doubled to feed a crowd, or halved to serve 4 people. My sister made this for the family a couple of weeks ago & we all gave it a "thumbs up".

Makes: 8 servings

Ingredients
• 1 1/2 pounds turkey breast tenderloin or skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 2 10 ounce packages frozen mixed vegetables
• 2 12 ounce jars turkey or chicken gravy
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 2 20 ounce packages refrigerated mashed potatoes (or make your own!)
Salt & pepper to taste

1. Cut turkey or chicken into 1/2-inch strips. Place frozen vegetables in slow cooker. Top with turkey or chicken strips. In a small bowl stir together the gravy and thyme; pour over turkey.
2. Cover and cook on low-heat for 7 hours or on high-heat setting for 3 to 3-1/2 hours.
3. Using a spoon, spread mashed potatoes on top of turkey mixture. Cover and cook for 30 minutes to one hour more on high heat until potatoes are hot. (If on low heat, turn to high). To serve, in each of 4 shallow bowls spoon some of the turkey mixture, topped with the mashed potatoes.
