4. If you are making your own white sauce: Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
5. Add onions and cook until translucent, 2-3 minutes.
6. Whisk flour into butter and onions and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
7. Slowly whisk broth into flour until smooth, add thyme, salt and pepper and bring to a slow simmer.
8. Add meat and vegetables.
9. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.
10. Transfer turkey mixture to a deep-dish pie plate or shallow casserole dish placed on a baking sheet.
11. Spoon warmed mashed potatoes over top, and, using the back of a spoon, make an even layer with the potatoes.
12. Then put the pans into the oven and bake 20-25 minutes, until top is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
