🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free or vegan needs, swap the cheese for a nutty plant-based hard topping or extra pepitas. If you avoid alliums, leave out the shallot and garlic and use a pinch of celery seed or extra herbs for savory depth.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, roasted Brussels sprouts, or garlicky broccoli to lighten the richness. A dry white wine or sparkling water with citrus also complements the earthy squash and sage.
