White bean mash with griddled vegetables and homemade pesto Recipe

Do any of you remember the cheesy pesto white bean mash I made last year? I’ve pretty much been dreaming about it ever since – it’s smooth and creamy, and just as comforting as any mashed potato you could hope for, but has the added bonus of being super high in protein.
