Swaps and substitutions

For a lighter dairy-free version, swap the cream cheese and Monterey Jack for plant-based alternatives, and use extra pasta water or broth for body. If you avoid wheat, choose gluten-free penne; for a milder dish, use less blackening spice or leave out the hot sauce.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad or simple roasted vegetables to balance the rich, spicy pasta. Garlic bread or warm crusty bread also works well for scooping up the creamy sauce.
