🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for black beans, roasted cauliflower, or extra peppers and onions. To avoid dairy or wheat, use a plant-based creamy sauce and cheese, and replace the pasta with gluten-free pasta.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, lime wedges, or simple avocado slices to cut through the rich cheese and spice. Warm tortillas or a side of black beans also make it feel more like a full Tex-Mex dinner.
