🥚Eggs🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, use a good melting plant-based cheese in place of the mozzarella and cheddar. For gluten-free, swap the sourdough for sturdy gluten-free bread; for egg-free or vegan, choose a honey-free Dijon-style dressing.
What to serve with it
Serve with a simple tomato soup or a cup of roasted vegetable bisque for a cozy, balanced meal. A crisp sparkling cider or dry white wine also suits the sweet-savory flavors and bright salad notes.
