- 1
Heat oven to 400°F. Melt butter in a skillet over medium. Cook onion and carrots 6–8 minutes until soft. Stir in turkey, gravy, peas, and thyme. Simmer 2–3 minutes until saucy; add a splash of broth if it looks dry. Season to taste.

Spread filling in a greased 8-inch baking dish (or 9-inch pie plate). Spoon mashed potatoes on top and spread to the edges, sealing so filling doesn't bubble over. Rough up the top with a fork; sprinkle cheese if using.

Bake 20–25 minutes until the filling bubbles at the edges and potatoes are lightly browned. Broil 1–2 minutes if you want deeper color. Rest 5 minutes before serving.
