Notes

*use canned or cooked white beans. Great northern, cannellini, or navy beans will all work here. I don't recommend using chickpeas (garbanzo) as they are a bit too dense.
**you can substitute almond butter or, for nut allergies, swap in sunflower seed butter.
***I prefer soy milk for it's higher protein content, but feel free to substitute any plant milk you have on hand.
