Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a large skillet, cook the lean ground turkey over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it browns. Cook until it's fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet, and cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, and cook for another 3 minutes until the vegetables are just starting to thaw.
Add the can of reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup and the chicken broth to the skillet, stirring until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.
Pour the turkey and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the mixture in the baking dish.
Arrange the low-fat tater tots in a single layer on top of the cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.
