🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, swap the sour cream and cheese for plant-based versions, or use a creamy avocado-lime topping instead. For gluten-free, replace the flour tortillas with corn tortillas and check that the BBQ sauce and seasonings are gluten-free.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, charred corn, or a simple tomato-cucumber slaw to balance the smoky, cheesy filling. A few extra lime wedges and a light dip of salsa or guacamole make the plate feel brighter and more complete.
