Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Not a fan of almond milk? Soymilk makes a nice substitute in our vegan mashed potatoes recipe.
  • tip 2
    The warmed almond milk is added at the end of cooking to avoid separating. While the almond milk may be heated in the microwave or on the stovetop, it should only be brought to a gentle simmer; do not boil.
  • tip 3
    Cooking Vegan? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is vegan. Products and ingredient sources can change.
