Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the cooking oil.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until they are heated through.
Add the dairy-free cream of mushroom soup, dairy-free milk, soy sauce, dried thyme, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine, and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Arrange the tater tots in a single layer on top of the turkey mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, until the tater tots are crisp and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
