Carrots and zucchini and green beans are the highlighted vegetables here and I have further lightened the sauce and the mashed potato topping by using unsweetened almond milk. In a large heavy skillet or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery, and cook until soft and golden. Sprinkle in the flour and cook for an additional minute, then whisk in the stock vigorously to avoid any lumps. Watch how to make this recipe.
