As always, it's best to use organic, local produce.  If using organic, you'll get more health benefits by not peeling the potato or carrot.  That part of the vegetable is full of nutrients and antioxidants.

 

*Add vanilla vegan protein powder to boost protein content.  Add 1/4 cup of powder and double the almond milk.
