Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside, keeping the drippings in the skillet.
- 3
Melt the sausage drippings and 3 tablespoons butter together in the skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup flour and cook for 2 minutes; the mixture will thicken as the flour cooks. Stir in the chicken broth and continue to cook and stir until any flour lumps dissolve and the mixture starts to bubble, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add the sage. Season with salt and pepper.

Stir the heavy cream into the mixture and add the reserved sausage, the turkey, and the mixed vegetables. Adjust the seasoning if needed and pour into the prepared baking dish.
- 5
For the topping, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream to start; gradually add the remaining cream to make a wet, sticky dough.
- 6
Drop large tablespoon-sized balls of dough over the meat and vegetable mixture, spacing 15 to 16 balls evenly.
- 7
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, parsley, chives, and garlic powder. Brush the mixture lightly over each dough ball. Place the baking dish on the prepared sheet pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and the topping is browned, about 45 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
