3 Amazing recipes will make you instantly fall in love with Almond milk

Did you know that Almonds in general are a great source of Vitamins, Proteins, and Minerals and are filled with fiber. Plus, it tastes great and adds richness to a lot of dishes. 
We at Plantaway have created a bunch of recipes using almond milk—some sweet and some savory. Though the replacement may not be universal, they are pretty wide and varied. On the sweet side, almond milk was a great alternative in place of regular milk in our Almond Milk Chocolate Pudding, & our Immunity Boosting Vegan Banana Smoothie. Since no one really thought of almonds and savory much, we experimented with our own favorite Rich and Creamy Vegan Mushroom Risotto. Trust us..Divine!
With all the talks, Lettuce take you to the mouthwatering easy recipes:
