Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free, skip the sour cream and pepper jack, or use plant-based versions that melt and dollop well. If you want a milder bowl, swap the pepper jack for a gentle cheese and use a mild salsa instead of a hot one.

What to serve with it

Serve these bowls with warm tortillas or crunchy tortilla chips for extra scooping, plus a simple side of avocado or lime-dressed slaw to cool the heat. A light Mexican-style corn salad also fits the spicy, hearty flavors.
