Shepherd's pie is a classic British dish that is typically made with ground lamb or beef, topped with a layer of mashed potatoes. This keto-friendly version of shepherd's pie uses ground turkey instead of lamb or beef, and a creamy celery root puree instead of mashed potatoes. The result is a dish that is just as hearty and flavorful as the traditional version, but with a fraction of the carbs.
